I installed the new rear springs on my Carryall. The difference in ride is dramatic. She now rides like a Cad...oops Imperial. Picked up 1.5" in ride heigth with a 960# design payload which would be a curb weight fully loaded of 7500#. Now, I can jump up and down on the rear step bumber and feel the Carryall move with me. Before, it was like jumping up and down on a concrete road. I am holding until later this winter to do the front springs. Right now, I need to be able to pull the Carryall out during the day so I can work on the M-37 Cab in that Bay. Changing the front springs will be a quick, late winter project. Having springs designed for a specific application is not cheap, but the reward in 'Ride' was worth it. Also, now I know my springs are not tired, fatigued, ready to fail at a poor time.
