pug Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 What is the best coil spring to buy for a 8 inch lift for a mj.thanks
86FUBAR Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 I'm running about 8" of lift but didnt want to constrict my self to just the 8" spring so i purchased the ACOS and 6" skyjacker springs so i had the ability to adjust and fine tune my suspension as things settled or as i threw more weight on it.
xjrev10 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 i got some RE 6 in springs 4 sale. see classifieds.
Motion Offroad Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Just make sure you get something with a decent spring rate. That's a lot of coil and most manufactures just make a stiff coil to compensate. A nice progressive coil would probably ride the best.
pug Posted January 28, 2011 Author Posted January 28, 2011 I have rockkrawler 6.5 coilsthey are starting to bow out. I guess thats what it is called and new tires are starting to wear yes i did get frontend alliend. thanks
91coMANche Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 coils won't casue tires to wear bad. Of course they will. An alignment on a Y-link steer Jeep depends on a static height. Bowing coils will lower that height and toe out the front end ergo higher tire wear. Not to mention the control arm adjustment isn't spot on any longer either.
