Given a choice, I'd take the 2k savings and and use it for something else important.

This!

My friend ran Deaver's on his race truck. They handled really well and resisted settling better than the old pack he had. I am sure Deaver's are better, but are they 2K better? For a race truck maybe, a van I just don't see a the price vs benefit being there.

My $0.02....

Rear springs are one of the single largest impact items one can add to a van. The stock springs are harsh and bind up quick. Contact Jeremy at Weldtec Designs and have him quote you for a comparable set. They are much cheaper and offer all the same quality characteristics. I have installed 2 sets and have nothing but great things to say.

Deavers are nice, but you pay the price (for a name).....

Worth is wholly dependent on who's doing the buying. I wouldn't spend $2,100 on a pair of springs no way no how. Not for MY van, but some guys would be happy to.

There's not a bumper on the planet I'd spend $2k + for, but there's all KINDS of people here that just crawled all over themselves to do so for an Aluminess. Shoot, even worse (to me of course) are the guys all over the Tacoma boards that can't wait to spend over $2,000.00, for a brighter set of headlights.

I simply cannot wrap my head around that mentality, but I CAN wrap my head around the fact that it isn't my money they're spending so what I think doesn't matter.

$2k on headlights?? Seriously? What kind of headlights are they?

Probably oem projectors from a high end car. Plenty of people do it, and its worth it if youre a lighting junkie.

Seriously? If I were that much of a lighting "junkie", before I spent $2,000.00 I'd just wait till daylight and do it for free. :)

There's some of us with the amount just in offroad lights, I'd rather dump 2k into my regular headlights that I can use every day before I spend 2k on Baja designs.
