I am thinking about a pac-brake for the truck and wanted to know if the stock exhuast valve springs were strong enough to handle the added eng. braking? Or do you have to beef them up? ???

With your truck being a 24-valve, 60lb springs from factory, you should be fine.

That Pac-Brake is a great choice! Wonderful product! I really like the one I have.

As 4x4 stated, you should be OK on the springs, visit Pac's website for information, they have lot's of good info there!
