Hey I’ve been having trouble finding springs for my D1. It’s a pretty heavily loaded truck- 300Tdi/Dual Batteries/ Husky 8 in a CT winch tray/ ARB modified non-winch bumper/and it will have a parking/pre-heater shortly.
Currently after searching the ARB specs I am running 17”/220# front OME 3063’s I replaced a set of similar rate 2751’s which had sagged to stock height. As expected being 2” longer, it picked the front up 2”. I like the rate, I just want longer springs- maybe 2-3” longer.
For the rear I was going to cut off the D1/D90 spring perch and put on the D110 spring perches and run the matching rear long travel D110 springs- OME 3065’s which are slightly softer (270-330#/in) than the springs I now run with 2” spacers- 2762’s (300-340 #/in). The truck still sits rear high, not offensively.
I want to run just coils for lift and no spacers. I know the Gods of suspension and drive shaft geometry will take offense and I am prepared for that next step. I just want a place to get springs.
I have already talked to RTE but they refuse to give me numbers on springs and rates. I refuse to buy a blind product. Eibach doesn’t list springs greater than 5” OD. D1’s are 6” OD. D110’s are 7” OD
Anyone have any magical spring sources? I
