I need to replace my leaf springs and shocks, mine are shot, and I've been hauling tools in my Dart so I'm really wearing them out.

Can anybody recommend where to buy new leaf springs? I want something that is going to be 1 or 2 inches higher than stock, especially since I carry about 300lbs every day. I was thinking springs from a heavier model or maybe a V8 model. I live down from Firm Feel, but they offer racing springs that I don't think are really for my daily driver.

Any suggestions? I'm doing new shocks this week, but I'll have to get the leafs later...

For the price of getting a set from a company and having them shipped...Benz Spring down on Macadam in Portland can make anything you want (including Hupmobile springs...been around a long time).
Last time I inquired you can request up to 6 springs in your leaf profile.
(I was looking at 5). They can even install them for you too.
