Are there any aftermarket springs that don't lift or lower?

Are there any aftermarket springs that don't lift or lower?

I'm still trying to improve the ride quality of my truck, and I'd like to look into a new set of springs and shocks/struts. The problem I'm finding is that all of them either lift or lower the truck. Are there any options for new springs out there that will improve our ride quality, yet not lift or lower the vehicle? Thanks guys. Later.

performance products 1" lift are probally the most mild. you should also consider the tundra TRD 2wd springs since they will only lift 1.5" by themselves. for the rear, you could just get a cornfed spacer (or daystar for that matter) or some OME 906 coils that will give you 2". You then take out your conical bumpstops to drop it 3/8" and it will be level. I'd do OME shocks/struts all the way around for sure.

Total would be about $600 shipped + install - that really isn't bad at all.

BTW with the PP springs, they advertise 1", but it works out to be 1 1/2- 1 3/4. It looks good, but it has a larger than stock look.

Have you thought about adding Addco swaybars? I know you were talking about springs to improve ride quality, but all I hear is good things about Addcos and HWY driving. BTW, the OEM springs off of a stock 4WD might make it ride a little different and only lift your truck slightly.

Have you tried installing some high end gas charged shocks yet? I am a big fan of the skyjackers. If you don't want to lift the rear end the powerefull rebound of these shocks should eliminate the need for new prings.
