Original 1985 short bed 4X4

Probably not a fan of re-arching but thought I’d ask. I’d have to send them far away so shipping costs have to be factored in.

New, made in America springs will be the way I go, I think.
Eaton, Detroit Spring, ATS, Michigan truck spring are just a few. Anyone have a preference? Bought from any of these company’s? Or someone else maybe?

Thanks for the info….
