I'm not familiar with them either. I do have the Belltech 908SP kit. I got lucky and found it on sale for $470. That was marked down $300. But a quick search today shows them going for $663. Great kit. Extremely happy with it. The 914SP is also a great kit and is about $520 but it doesn't include fwd springs. Just the lowering strut.
I love the ride. Not to stiff but a nice sporty feel. Handles great and performs well in the curves as well as the drag strip. I do not have my truck dropped as far as the kit will let it go. She's up 5/8" in the rear and a 1/2" in the front.

I have had western chassis 2" coils on my 2002 F150 and after a few years they now sit at, driver 3.25" and passenger 2.25"
Pretty crappy quality if you ask me.
Only put somewhere near 20K miles since install.
Western Chassis have offered to send me a replacement set for $100 about $20-$30 bucks worth of savings.
That would mean removing and replacing existing coils at a cost of about $300.

Find another garage to replace your coil, no need to go to a high rate dealer to replace coil!!
...it's about a one hour job (2 max if you do it yourself with a set of spring compressor)
