Hey all so i bought a 1997 xlt but it needs new leaf springs, I'm looking for an affordable set i dont haul anything but a small boat, any good websites, suggestions are all appreciated. My truck has the smaller v8. Also I'm going to replace my shocks at the same time if any one has suggestions for those, thank you in advance
