There was a member that got some springs from Alcan, maybe he'll chime in. Otherwise you could probably contact Alcan and ask them what a set of springs comes with.

They are extremely slow to respond. I've contacted them a few times. I will have to call them on Monday.

I went to their website Tuesday afternoon and filled out the "How to order" form and got an email response the next day. They quoted me a rough price but wanted to know how much my accessories weight so they can design the correct springs. Here is the link http://www.alcanspring.com/order.htm
Bill Ford wrote me and said this: "They come with bushings and take about 3-4 weeks to design and build. "

I would like to go to http://www.dobinsonusa.com/ and order a set but the shipping price I was quoted is completely outrageous. AIR FREIGHT $936.45.

I need springs and shocks bad!

Welcome to 60Patrol!

The Dobinsons are nice springs, but they are in Australia. A few years back some of did a group buy and shipped in several sets from them. As I recall the freight wasn't even $900, but that's when the US dollar was a lot stronger and it was economical for us to buy things from Australia. Now, not so much.

Boyd, How'd it go with the order?

This might be 'old' news but we possibly have another option for leaf springs. Dobinson Springs has a facility in Florida. I talked to the guy about getting a quote for our G60 leaf springs. The Dobinson Australia part #'s were not in his database for the US. He is going to request a quote from Australia and stated that they get a container every few months. I mentioned that this might not be a bad item for them to keep in stock. I will share as soon as I get a quote back.

That is awesome news! I can vouch for Dobinson's springs - I've used a few of their lift kits and they rock! I have used a 2" lift and 0 lift from Dobinson's.
