Where are you located? I've got a set of used rear coil springs, the paint codes say they are from a seven seater. I don't need them any more and would let them go cheap.

Then you'd need just the hardware kit. I'm sure Erik could get you the spring perches, isolators, and the bolts and washers pretty cheap. I've got a set, but they are from a d1 and might give it a little too much lift.

I am in Canada. I had seen some used sets for about $110-120 shipped. Any better than that I would be very happy. Still trying to get a white fender shipped here for a good price as well.

If you are doing serious heavy duty offroad where you can puncture the bags air suspension is at high risk of damage and you'd be better off with coil springs and shockers. If you stick with air suspension and the other air bag is over 5 years old if it were me I'd deffo change both. One way to reduce air bag damage is to elevate the SLS to a high position regularly (4 times a year) if you are cleaning the truck and wash off both air bags as grit and debris reduces their life span dramatically. If you use a jet washer don't hit them with the jet but always use the diffused spray otherwise you'll blow a hole in them.

I am in Ontario.

I found a set of springs and hardware for $113 shipped so I grabbed them. Figure I might as well. So hopefully I can get back on the road asap.

I'm pretty sure it's just two per side. There might be some lock washers. You'll have to tap the holes on the perch mount on the axle housing, or at least I did on my 1999 D2. Also there might be a pair of rubber isolators for the top of the springs.
