Have made 3 trips to the track with new spring and drives real good on top end.

Coil Spring Specialties made my front springs, also. It took two tries to get them right, but the ones that are in there now work well. I'm sorry, but I don't have any of the specs on these springs, as this has been several years ago since I had them made. I do remember them being easy to work with, and they made the second pair and sent them to me without any problems. The truck drives and handles well, both on the street and at the track, transfers weight well, and doesn't do anything scary upon decel.
