Difference in springs. I am upgrading the swaybars and shocks on my base FE1 suspension with BMR bars, and Bilstein Heavy Duty shocks, but do I need to change the leaf springs to get the really good handling. Unfortunately she did not have the Z51 suspension package! I know the swaybars and shocks will help a whole lot, but will the stock springs leave it too soft for good canyon carving?
Will it be just fine with the sways and shocks?
Is there actually a different leaf for the Z51 suspension, or am I mistaken?
And finally, where is a good place to get the new springs?
Thanks guys!

Springs complete the package. I ran mine without springs for a while. Although stiffer, it seemed to get softer the harder it was pushed. The Z51 springs made a big difference. Almost zero roll now.
