Here you go-

http://www.generalspringkc.com/index...arent=117&pg=1

General Spring makes a 5 leaf heavy duty rear pack for our truck. they have a 2200lbs capacity. Factory packs have 1700 or so.

Its an extra leaf or two, the guy i spoke to there said it most likely will lift the rear up an inch or two.

But if your looking for stronger springs for payload purposes these will do it.


Otherwise, you can have a spring shop beef up your current packs.


Shocks you have a few options....

Rancho, KYB, Monroe, gabriel or OEM. Can't really recommend one, I have KYB but only because they were $30 a piece and available over the counter at my autoparts store.
