Hey guys, I have a 1997 GMC Sierra K1500. I’ve had the truck since new. Has 376k miles and still runs like a top. Question I have is I’m about install some new Bilstein 4600s (well overdue) will be my third set of shocks on this truck. My question is though. The rear leaf springs is OEM. Truck doesn’t appear to sag but at the same token I have no idea what the factory height was. I’ve inspected the leafs (not loose, no cracks). Alabama truck so nearly zero rust. My rear fender measurements are Driver Rear-34.5” and passenger rear is 35.25”. I plan to keep this truck awhile. Not a daily driver but would it be worth going and ahead and installing new 3+1 rear leaf springs? It has towed a lot and been loaded heavy over its life but not a daily anymore and only tows lighter weight occasionally nowadays.
