so um yeah... today I hit a I guess you could call it a "pothole" in the road and broke the driver front main leaf spring... nothing else is damaged but it kinda ticked me off... so I looked into it and total after shipping the rough country 4" suspension lift is just under 500... so should I just say screw it and lift it or should I just get a replacement front OEM leaf pack?

well screw the lift if this idea works... a kid here at school lifted his and he said he'd sell me his stock ones for 25 bucks... problem is that they are for the dana 60 front axel and mines the dana 44... are they gonna work being that they are for diferent axel sets or is it gonna fit? need to know ASAP

iam not a spring or front end guy. but my guess is if the dimensions are the same it should fit. hints: use solvent to clean the bolts of dirt be for you take it apart. and DO use anti-sieze compound on ALL thread on the bottom of TWK.

I talked to someone from summit racing and they said they would work as long as I got the ubolts for the dana 60 axel
