Spring options.

I need some spring options for my 79 4wd. My front springs are completely flat. The catch is I don't want to lift it more than a couple inches, but preferably none at all. I also would like something that rides a little better than the stock ones. Any ideas?

I ran Downey rears for less than a year. If they're fronts are the same quality as the rear try another brand. Customer service was so-so.

Stay aware from north west off road springs unless you like the ride of a tank and have a good chiropractor.

Thanks guys. I am just looking for a good, comfortable ride because mine rides like a lumber wagon. What about shocks? I forgot to ask.
