I took the springs from my 78 Sport Fury into the spring shop when I got it, asked just for them to rearch them. Didn't cost me much, but didn't last the rest of that season either. Only time I ever "just" had a set reached w/o adding a leaf. wound up doing the 80s high school patch..... air shocks. don't like my Mopars looking like 70s GM's seems every one of those cars looked like they were dragging @$$. Out of this set of springs that came from my son's 90 W250, I hope to get a pair for each Dakota (2) and a pair of add a leaves for that car. no leaves were broke on that truck. it sat decent and took a load pretty well, but my son makes more $$$ than ol' Dad, so he decided to replace them when he put the flat bed on.
Im gonna do the 96 4wd Dakota 1st, went by the spring shop today and picked up the new center bolts, spring clips, inter leaf pads and U bolts..... the Fury will be last, because I haven't even got it out yet this year, its stored 30 miles away in Mom's garage.
