summit has the rear leafs HSS-2402 for 314.95 and you can add some belltech front coils BEL-4402 119.50 this will give you a total of 435.45
S&H should be under 20.00 for both items I LOVE SUMMITS S&H charges
IMO the front coils are pretty much the same, i may be wrong. i cant tell the diff. between belltechs and hotchkis front coils, they ride the same.

anyone else agree?

I got my Hotchkis from site sponsor Tbyrne. It's probably fine to use Belltech coils, but personally I'd rather run front and rear springs that were designed to work together as a system.

So in the end, this kit will run the same as a mcgaughys kit?

I was going to get mcgaughys but i wouldnt mind my truck handling a little but since its a crewcab, would it be worth trying the hotchkis kit for handling or just stick with a nice kit that will keep my factory ride quality?
