Leaf Springs,Replace or recondition?

Yep,this is all trucker's do is get re-arched and add a leaf. Some folk's would rather buy em new from a fancy boutique though. I really think this buying local has several advantages;1) no huge shipping charges 2) Need it serviced? It's right there..across town or they may even offer towing services 3) custom tuned leaf spring pack's,whatever you want/need 4) You are supporting local job's and economies!!!
