Default Progressive rate coil springs for 1500

Who makes them? I've looked at the carli ones, but they're only for the diesel 2500s. I've got a 7 inch lift. My 5" BDS and 2" spacer is ok, but I know it'll be better with progressive rates.

Check Top Guns Customz. They might have something for you.

I did. They only offer the softride or the skyjacker which is just like what I'm currently running.

They were supposed to be coming out with progressives over a year ago. They advertised with pics on another forum. Surprised it didn't happen. I have the "softride" and either it's false advertising, or the shocks suck, or tires suck, but my truck rides like a double deuce.

Yeah so does mine. I want 7" ones so I can eliminate the spacers and make it ride better at the same time. These BDS ones are harsh.

You could out the diesel ones in your truck. They would ride rough and you would get extra lift but you could do it anyway haha

Get rid of the short arms and that will improve the ride 100%, changing springs will not make that much difference.
