I dont know where you are located but your best bet would be to have your old springs re-arced. I think it would be cheaper than new. Look in your area under auto springs. Here in the Seattle area Craig spring can do it.

Hello all,
I got my Air Bags From SD Truck springs,
They Are Great To Work With!
Retrorob is Right, Re-Arching Springs would be the Best Way,I May Do Mine Next Year.
If You Live in East Bay, California
There is a Shop Called A-1 Spring, the Shop is In Oakland,Ca
I Had My Rear Springs Re-Arched on My Shelby done There Years Ago & They Worked Great..

If you Have it Done, You May Want To Ask Tech, If You Can Also, Add a Extra 1 or 2 More Leafs To Spring Set, I Know You Have a Large Enough U-Bolts on Axles.

Hey Chingaman2001 Do You Have Air Bags On Your Clipper? Are They In Good Shape?
