Stock K5 Springs

Any body got a line on a good vendor for new high quality stock height springs? Mine are original and oh so tired and bouncy and squeeky and rusty and..... Also does any one make a kit or have a list of front end components, tie rod ends, upper/lower ball joints and all that? For a 4x4 K5 no lift.

Call one of the board vendors. I usually call Wes at Classicheartbeat.com, but I'm sure there are some closer to you (shipping springs could be expensive.)

Re: Stock K5 Springs

You could have your factory springs rebuilt and reacrched by a local shop...

I purchased all MOOG parts from www.rockauto.com for my front end

I used Moog on my front end also. Bought the parts from a local auto parts store.
