We just upgraded to IS and Disk Brakes on our Montana prepping for our next trip there.

Same trip planed summer of 2020. My Sailuns will be just over three years old by then, not much concern there. My biggest concern is my leaf springs, in the process now replacing the worn out shear springs ( 2008 3400 RL ) Leaf springs look okay, doesn't mean they are okay, or will hold up for that trip. Most likely for the cost will change them out, before then .
My biggest question a lot of vendors out there selling the 3500 lb rated 7K axle springs , any particular brand or vendor to purchase from?? . They are all pretty much in the $50 range per spring pack.
