Default TF 2.5" Coil Springs-(front)

(Moderator: If this is in wrong section please move accordingly. Thank You.)

About 2 years ago I had installed the Teraflex BB 2.5 w/ shocks. Very easy and nice setup. Since then I've added a Rugged Ridge XHD bumper and a Warn winch and the nose sags a bit. So I ordered the TF 2.5" coil springs for the front from Northridge4X4. before installation with a full tank of gas it measured 27-3/4" high on the left front corner of the bumper and 27- 3/4" on the right. After install the measuremnets were 30-7/8"L and 30-3/4"R. One week later after some off road flexing and daily driving the measurements with a full tank of gas are 30-1/4"L 30-1/4"R. The springs settled nicely and it sits level. Just FYI if anyone was interested.

If you get all four springs you will love it. They are a little stiff at first, but 100-200 miles of daily driving will soften them up.

Go to auto zone and borrow some spring/coil compressors (for free) the beefed up springs are harder to muscle in compared to the factory ones. *OR* I could of removed the skid plate to make more room... D'oh!...forgot about that...that woulda helped I bet...
