hotsprings

[66BigBackWindow]

My 1966 C10 was lowered sometime in the past by heating the springs. Now I am not a fan of super lowered trucks but it sits fairly level, and will be better when I replace the wood in the bed. Question is. Just what effect will the heat lowered springs have on other aspects of the truck, handling etc? Were they weakened by the heating process? If I at some point replace them should I look to the aftermarket for good springs. This is some ways off as I am concentrating on the motor and getting it back on the road. Thanks truck lovers.
