this is more of a continuation of my last thread. i'm lookin for a suspension solution. i was reccommended by a friend to put longer leaf springs then stock. i was told it will give me much better travel but i want more opinions. i have 2 inch longer shackles, a u-bolt flip kit on the front and crossover steering. i want to put pro comp rx 6 adjustable shocks on it. what do you think about longer leaf springs or thicker stock springs? if you like longer, where do i get them and for how much (i do have a budget). thanks for your input

longer springs will get you more travel.. search this site for 63" chevy springs.
there cheap and i heard they work good.

On the cheap, you can do some rear up front packs and Chevy or Ford half ton springs. I wouldn't run anything other than Bilstein shocks The Bilsteins are spendy, but they are a whole 'nother level of performance.

if i acquired some chevy/ford half ton springs could i just drop them right in or should i repack them and make them thicker?

no, not if you go the 63" Chevy route you will need to relocate the mounts,
