the front springs are original and pretty rusty, only has 2 leafs up front. the bushings look worn out (old rubber). The bolts are not seized up though from what I can tell. I priced some progressive fronts the other day, they are pricey (over $500 for a set).

Some say the truck foam seat adds to the bouncing of the vehicle too. Thought about swapping in some different seats.

I thought about the 63" leafs, I searched all over to see if there was an install guide for them, but it seems the only people using them were rock crawlers that had big lifts on them.
