Not a doubt in my mind those springs were in piece's the day the truck put down those (4) 60 ft's and ET's I posted above. AMOF I'm positive it was like that when I bought it.

As for noticing anything change NO, thats how I know they were like that.
Ever since I bought the truck it had a shimmy in the nose AND I constantly dragged the front lower facier on the street. I was at V's house last yr for a Mod Party and when we went to change the front breaks I noticed it, checked the other side and saw that one was broke too. Thank God V actually had my 02 Springs at his house so in they went, on the ride home NO MORE SHIMMY, NO MORE HITTING FRONT FACIER

AMOF I'm pretty sure they were even in pieces when the truck went 9.74

(in the opening slow motion clip look how the nose drops when you get off the gas during the smokey, (that clip is from the 9.74) )

I'm in the 1.6x's with ported Eaton, 2400 stall, lakewood slappers, stock shocks, FRPP lowering kit with the front spring isolators and one leaf left out on 30" M&H's. Hope to get 1.5's this year.
