yep you guys are right on. I already bought all the undercoat to make them look nice and good lucus gear oil. I was planning on checking the lsd so hopefully everything looks good. 5 speed and 4 10 gears with lsd is making me tingle a litle

He already has diesel coils. So offroad coils won't do much for him. Blocks, maybe.

I think what you mean is the ORE coils are the same as the 3/4 ton (assumed) GAS coils as stated in his sig. A source of mine here has checked the codes and says that ORE coils = 3/4 ton GAS coils. Diesel coils =/ Gas coils.

However...the coils might sagged over time differently and possible different manufacture dates.

Well, I had assumed that since he had 3/4 ton springs, that they were diesels. Didn't even think about them being gassers. But the ORE springs may have sagged over time as well, which would mean they wouldn't do anything as far as lift either.
