[QUOTE="steve benjamin, post: 952830, member: 54170"] Hugh...but I have to admit that the 2001 wasn't much of what I like in a TRUCK until I stiffed up the suspension by a bunch: sway bars; bilsteins; road active susp; end links; bushings; and a extra leaf in the springs. Yeah, it road like a truck but I could go dang near anywhere with it, and did. I could swing it into a corner and it would just take a set instead of rolling over! I called some shops about stiffening the new one's springs but apparently no one makes any for it. I guess I could put in the heavier 2009 sway bar but that's about it. But...I have to admit the 2008 is a nice ride on the open highway. Always a trade off I guess. I changed the plugs in the 2001 at 90K and again at 180K. I too was skekptical about the distance but they seemed to do just fine. I'll give some thought about doing them when it rolls over 40K. Maybe the safe way to go and maybe it could use them anyway.
