Air Shocks

A les schuab guy reccomended installing air Shocks rather then replacing warn leaf springs. Saying its cost effective... What's your opinion

if you are paying shop labor rates it will probably be cheaper. But replacement leaf springs arent all that expensive, and definately the better route.

Shocks are not ment to carry weight, springs would be a better choice and give you a better ride.

The guys at les schuab are complete morons ! I worked at a local one for a few hours after hearing the complete bull**** that came from their mouths when they would recommend parts made me cringe. So I decided not to waste anymore of my time. Some of the stupid **** they told customers showed they were clueless One person told a customer OME is garbage an tuffcountry was far superior .
