Thanks i will look into them

Which springs are you looking for? We keep a big selection in stock here.

I have 2 or 3 sets of lightly used springs as well, depending on what rates you are looking for. I know I have 1 pair of 700#, I think the other pair is either 450# or 500#.

I'm looking for 2.5-14"

I'm looking for 2.5-14"

What rate spring? We've got several 14" springs in stock. They're 2.5" ID, 3.5" OD.

Right now i have 12"750 lbs springs ( which rides a lil to stiff for me ) but the strut I have calls for a 14". It goes in the front of my 2013 GMC Sierra. To get the ride hight i wanted i had to use a spacer. I'd like to go with the 14" to help improve my travel plus get rid of the spacer. I will post a pic of what im talking about once i get home.

We've worked on these trucks before.
I'm sure we can help you out.

Ahh, I now see what you've got.
Before changing springs you need to get rid of the spacers first. The shock is sitting with very little stroke in a vehicle with tons of suspension travel potential. This is a recipe for bottoming out the shock.

Appears to me as though you still have threads left on the shock body.
Can you remove the spacers, then spin the spring retainer to make up the difference?

This would provide more shock stroke for zero dollars investment. If the ride is still harsh, then change springs.

FYI: so long as the truck is not bottoming out 750# springs in any length will feel exactly the same. I don't care if the spring is 3" long or 30" long, it still takes 750# to compress it one inch.
So if you have stiff ride quality you'll need to go down in rate.

Thans for the response thats one of the reasons i love this place.

I had tried without the spacer at first but it sat to low. With the spacer it sits at the ride hight i'm after. I figured with a 14'' spring it would help me with that plus give me some more travel. When i had the spacer off i had the retainer as for as i could go but the truck sat to low and my camber was off.

Yes sir i understand no matter how long the springs are 750# is still 750# thats why when i do get new springs i was going to go down spring rate also.

This is the truck in question as you can see if i do bottom out the tires will hit the inner finder wells which the only time I've bottom out is with my wheels turned all the way and i hit a pothole. Thanks again
