It can't hurt!
We ended up working with Eaton Detroit Spring for different front springs, these guys know their sh!t...wealth of knowledge for sure.
I measured my existing springs at 0.79" dia. and 13" long free length. This is a little heavier than stock C10. Eaton recommended a 0.815 dia. at 12 5/8" long...jumping me from a roughly 800lb/in to 1000lb/in spring rate and keeping my ride height exactly the same.
They had these springs in stock and shipped out the same day I called.
The new springs are the clean ones...can't tell much difference side by side, but I can tell a big difference installed.
We also got the Porterbilt arms installed tonight (quick note about superior customer service...texted Nate with a question on the installation and he answered within a few minutes late on a Saturday afternoon).
Moving the wheel centerline forward an inch is a subtle difference, but noticeable and provides us with needed clearance.
