I have a '91 with a 3 inch add-a-leaf in the rear spring pack. I am swapping in a 2001 axle and was planning on using the 2001 spring pack to replace my tired '91 springs. The 2001 springs are from a 2wd. My research indicates that the 2wd springs should not be different than my '91 4wd springs. When I set the two next to each other my '91's have a lot more arch than the 2001 springs even though they are older (205,000 miles). Is it possible that my '91 springs are more arched because the add-a-leaf has been in there for a couple of years? I am concerned about actually LOSING lift height if I use the newer (only 89,000 miles) 2001 springs. Anybody run across this before?
