I know they are a medium front DII spring, just wondering what the results would be...   Rob Davison (Nosivad_bor) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Nosivad_bor Post Number: 938 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:25 pm:    probably like a saggy stock springs. why use those? rd   Brian Anderson (Hans) New Member Username: Hans Post Number: 36 Registered: 08-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:59 pm:    Simply because I happen to have some lying around, I was hoping to not buy the appropriate springs and just use what I have. Wouldn't they be considerably stiffer since they are for the front of a DII? Carrying the engine and all...   Steve Cooper (Scrover) Senior Member Username: Scrover Post Number: 505 Registered: 09-2002 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:18 pm:    Scroll down and read the specs. It will all become clear: http://expeditionexchange.com/ome/indexsprings.htm SC   Brian Anderson (Hans) New Member Username: Hans Post Number: 37 Registered: 08-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:26 pm:    Not to sound like an idiot but that doesn't really help me. Assuming the front of the vehicle is heavier that would make these springs stiffer than stock and definately stiffer than the rears I also know, or think I know, the DII's are roughly an inch shorter than DI's or Classics. So, that being said would those two characteristics even each other out making? Ultimately I might just have to try it and see what happens.   Rob Davison (Nosivad_bor) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Nosivad_bor Post Number: 939 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:34 pm:    all the info is there man, nothing to think about.   Brian Anderson (Hans) New Member Username: Hans Post Number: 38 Registered: 08-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:41 pm:    oops!
