2001 Chevy Express Cutaway converted to Roadtrek RV. Rear leaf springs are not very springy anymore so decided to replace. Alignment shop wanted to put in custom 10 leaf, well over a $1000 just for the springs. Did some reading and could not see any advantage to spending that much.
I found the search for spings confusing as there are quite a few different spings for my van and all the confirmation I could get was the springs would fit my unit. I did not want to get involved in the expense or issues of trying to return the wrong parts as the springs very heavy! Turns out my springs are an 8 leaf spring referred to as RV springs. Poked around the net and found that buying OE Chevy was actually the cheapest way to go, no shipping charge and no hassle returns! Take parts back to dealer!
