Hey guys, looking for somewhere to buy some stock leafs. Only ones I can find are Kings and would be around $900 for the four.
Surely it isn't that you can buy a 2" lift for cheaper than a standard set???
Would another option be to get a blue pack set and remove a couple of leaves?

are there any spring manufacturers near you? Westralia suspension here in Perth make stock and lifted for sierra... i can't remember the pricing but its not bad. The advantage with a lifted pack though is that the leaves are usually a bit longer to account for the extra arch, so when you remove the load leaf you'll be a bit more travel (although it would be marginal at best, anythings better than nothing).

So being the noob I am to sierras lol... I just had a look on LROR, about $270 + shipping for the four springs. I'd imagine shipping would be at least $1-150. The calculator says anywhere between $3-500 but I can't see that being right.

Even $300 makes it nearly half the price of buying them here. I'm gonna email them about a proper shipping quote. The site does say it's only a computer generated amount and could vary
