Got it. For some reason I was thinking a taller spring might require a longer strut. I'm not looking to add any height at this time. Just looking to get the truck back on the road as fast and as reasonably priced as I can. I'm going to go with the KYBs for the struts and mounts. KYB has a $25 rebate if I felt like doing the rears as well, but I don't think I need to do that at this time.
