Lol I don't know either, I'm going the build your own route. Simply becuse I can change springs heavy and lighter to make it fit my purposes better.

is it a big deal to change springs?

not really if you know what youre doing. its just about finding about 45min-1hour of time.

it would be about a 3hr job the first time, then like hour and a half otherwise. but i dont expect that i will do it more than once or twice.

Its one of the things i would like to do to mine with shocks .. but i would love to do it myself. 146 k on a 94. I bet mine need it

I did it myself and learned a lot. I would do it that way again in a second. I love my Bilsteins but would trade for Xidas if the opportunity arose.

talk to Bbundy. He lives in a world of unicorns and pixie dust...maybe in his fairy-realm a trade like this would come along.

just wanted to give you an update, got a set of agx shocks with sleeves and summit springs, 350lb in front and 450lb in the back. very comfortable on the road and better than stock ride quality.

Methinks the stronger springs should be in the front.
