Yet another leaf spring thread!

[stepside2k1s10]

OK I'm at the dealer a few days ago, and I know that the ZQ8 leafs are out of my range unless I go to the junkyard, but I was curious how much the GM dealership was going to charge me. I ask the guy at the desk how much they were going to cost, I give him my VIN, and he says $394.06 or something to that effect. :eek: So he suggests I go to a place called Madison spring. I was wondering if anyone else has had leaf springs custom made and if so, are they worth my while or should I just go with something like belltech or DJM?

i would just get some aftermarket lowering springs. if you are going to pay money and do the work you may as well lower it more than 2 inches.

Do peolple make custom fiberglass springs. My friend told me that the corvette had fiberglass springs. Would be much lighter.

Belltech for sure....you can get them for pretty cheap. they ride great IMO
I went to GM to price out some new rear swaybar endlinks for my Zq8 bar and they wanted $56 a peice!!!

I wasn't too impressed with the Belltech springs on my Blazer X but after I took the bumper off to put on the ECC rollpan (lost about 200lbs) they seem a little better. I had thought about going to Tampa Spring a local company but I just to decided to go with a 4 link.
