chzuck Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) I have been researching for quite some time to find struts to replace my worn ones. My truck has the 6500# GVWR package and letter T springs (rate=633#/inch). Where ever I look the listed replacement struts say not for HD suspension. I want to keep the ride height and feel that I have now. I have inquired to several shock manufacturers and none of them will tell me their spring rates. I realize I will not find the exact rate I have now, but would like to know if theirs are close. Any ideas?

chzuck Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Mine has a V6, apologize for not listing that. Many say w/o heavy duty suspension or base payload. Mine has the T springs, which are near the top of the spring list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
