HighCountryMike, congratulations on that many miles!

If you don't have the Agile RIP yet I'd suggest considering that upgrade. Give them a call and discuss your specific handling challenges. My van was having a serious rear end bouncing issue (not as much side to side, but more of a rear end bounce that would require hitting the brake to bring it under control). In my situation they suggested just going with their "base" package of new coils, couple of leafs needing installed in the existing pack, Fox shock including stabilizer, and drop bracket for the front sway bar. Pretty sure that Agile could also get the Deaver set-up and install that instead of the extra leafs that come in the "basic" kit. No doubt that the Deaver leaf packs would be a serious upgrade to the extra leafs installed in the existing pack, but at a bit more $$$. As a bonus with the Deavers you get to jettison the lift blocks.

My RIP was just shy of $2000 with local installation running another $800. After putting on 20,000 miles over the past few years I remain very happy with this upgrade.

Cheers! -steve-

What was the cost experience like?
Thanks

I Just had the Deaver springs installed last month, here in northern California. The springs were about $2000 and labor was 800-900. There was shipping cost as well.

They did improve the ride, I also had new shocks ( fox 2.0) installed at the same time.
