are you keeping a standard front bumper on or fitting heavy duty winch bumper & winch ????

as it does make a differance on what springs are better to use

ok you don't want to be fitting the merc springs then if you fitting winch bumper & winch as they can't take the extra weight

better off with some gv v6 or deisel front springs & spacers
