skidoo_j Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 What brand are those? What lift are they? What load rating? They look like they maybe from Oregon Spring in Portland...? Do you know why the top leaf that is military wrapped is only a half spring? I assume it has to do with them being slung over, atleast that's how the centering pin appears.

dakal Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 i bought them from kaiser brake here in eugene. they make some parts of springs and i believe they get parts for them from portland. i have a soa, but the springs were too long and not put together correctly. the arc was too severe which made the back end too high. i wanted 2 or3 inches taken out of the lift, they are made for 2400 lbs total weight and most importantly, they are softly sprung. dezert prerunning. the top half leaf helps with anti-wrap. cory does this with a lot of his springs. having them made covered all my concerns. these are a one off spring. hope this helps, dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidoo_j Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 So did Kaiser brake design the leaf pack? Do you know what information they based it on? I'm curious because I've been unable to find an equation between free arch and installed height (partial load). I would have loved to had M/T equivalents that only netted 3.5" soa lift and were soft. Maybe you could post the build sheet for others? Or maybe what/how they were designed around. What did they set you back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
