Is yours 2 or 4 wheel drive? If it's 4X4, I would get these http://www.hellbentsteel.com/1994-20...eling-kit.html. That's what I plan on getting and several others have them already. If it's a 2WD, I'm not sure if they will work or not but I don't think so....

try http://car-part.com before you buy those springs....trust me...you'll save money with this. since those are $45 plus $27 shipping......thats $72.....i found a set of deisel coil springs, which will lift my truck for $25 for the PAIR, and its 10 miles away from me.......so check that site
