illl likely end up with an OME kit but also nice to compare the results of different spring rates...

Go to Expedition Exchange and read Johns write up regarding the OME specs.
So which would you rather do, raise the front or lower the rear. If you want to raise the rears consider installing D2 spring seats which will drop you a little over 1/2" and maybe throw in a short spacer in the front, isolators will give you around 3/8ths. of an inch.
I run the 751/762's on my D2 and I realize they are different trucks, but the spring rate combination works well for me.

HD springs are for heavily laden all the time trucks, so of course its going to sit higher in the rear, they are thinking that you will have the truck fully loaded 24/7 and the weight will level you out.

Thanks Spike that's really what I wanted to know. Living in Philadelphia I'm reluctant to keep stuff in the truck for obvious reasons. Might look into window cages.

You can buy expanded metal screening (the thick stuff), cut it to a slightly larger size than your windows and mount it directly to the metal interior frame work and you got a burgular proof window at a fraction of the price. It might not be as pretty, but just as effective if done correctly.
