Try Dentonis on Florin-Perkins Rd in Sac, or Betts Spring In W.Sac.
Not sure on prices, but $100 does not seem too bad.

Do it yourself with a big hammer.

Seriously, break down the pack and hit each spring at a specific point until it bends. I believe there are some writeups on the web about this.

I get mine rearched at pick-n-pull. :flipoff2:
When I wear out a set I buy new ones. When you rearch the spring they just eventually sag back down to where they were before you did it. Usually, it doesn't take very long for that to happend either.

For the engineers out there the reason rearched springs sag is because of the residual stresses from bending them. essentially they are prestressed in the wrong direction. If the springs are re heat treated after the re-arch then they will be as good as new springs in terms of sagging.

Hanley's (sp?) in Sac/Rancho is another place to try. Seems like they quoted me less than $100... like $75?
