I installed the Bilsteins, which improved the ride quality considerably but predictably did not affect the ride height. So I replaced them with some Monroe air shocks that provided the ride height adjustment I was looking for. Also, the steering feel has improved noticeably with the rear sag...
This is in line with my initial thoughts. But after 40+ years and 200K miles I figured a spring refresh couldn't hurt. The rear seems to be sagging to me - I don't know maybe that's just the way it's supposed to look?
New poster here. Been lurking for a while for tips and tricks to keep my truck keepin' on.
Mine's a tan '82. I'm the second owner, and it has just over 208,000 miles on it. All original except for the stereo, which itself is from the late '80s. Almost period correct. LOL
I'm growing weary...
