CMMagnussen Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Looking for some stiffer coil springs for my 87 MJ. anything from the big 3 bolt in? Even if it gives up to 4" of lift I can live with it.......... Thank Ya much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 How stiff? F-150 coils from the eary (radius arm) trucks bolt in. I think they give about 4.5", but can be trimmed down a bit. Ford thunderbird (V6, I think) coils will give about 3.5~ of lift, and are a bit stiffer plus variable rate. V8 ZJ coils are a bit stiffer and give 1.5"~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 if they are not too stiff That's the kicker right there. Those coils are designed to hold up a lot more weight than an MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow i have a spare set i might put in if they are not too stiff How much do you value your spine? 'Cause it'll be nice and squished if you drive a lot...
