Hello,

My dad has a 91 GMC Safari 2 wheel drive, the front shock is leaking oil (they are stock never been changed) so we are looking to change both front shocks and maybe the springs also (depending on cost) since they have also never been changed.

Just looking on price for the parts & maybe a website where i can compare it? Are there normal and premimum shocks/springs?

Thanks

Why would you want to replace the springs?

And even though you are seeing oil that doesn't necessarily mean your shocks are bad - do the jump test to see if the truck keeps rebounding. Google this if you're not sure what I mean.

But springs don't wear out, they can sag or break, but that sag doesn't typically happen from normal driving. BIG weights can do it.
