CA 52" Deaver springs

[charity case]

These are used Deaver c65 springs they are 52" springs with offset center pins. They have 13 springs per pack and are designed to mount in the original front hanger and to move the rear hanger back a bit.

I'm asking $400 obo for the springs as is. One pack is disassembled and has had the separation brackets trimmed for steering clearance.

I also have a set of nice brackets for the rear with 6" shackles and hardware I can include for another $100

Is there anything wrong with them? What are the separation brackets? Are these ment to be front or rear use?

 

[charity case]

They are front springs. Nothing wrong with them. The bracket keeps the springs from from separating at full droop

Dang i need some for the rear. Do they have the smaller bushings?

What are these rated for travel at?

What is the center pin offset?

 

[charity case]

About 12" of travel. They have the wide bushings in them right now and the center pin is offset forward of the centerline to keep the wheelbase stock

About 12" of travel. They have the wide bushings in them right now and the center pin is offset forward of the centerline to keep the wheelbase stock

I was more considering if they would be good rear springs or not.

Can you grab the offset measurements for me of the pin?

 

[charity case]

I can. But I'd say don't waste your time with these for a rear application. Just go straight to 64" springs

I was hoping to use them as rears too

 

[Deuling]

I'd probably just link it at that point.

 

[charity case]

Roughly 23 1/2" along the arc from front pivot to center pin

That would put the rear tire a little forward of center in the wheel well.

Mine is currently a 25" offset, and with the three hole ruffstuff perches I have the pin in the front most hole and its centered perfectly.

1.5" wouldn't be a huge issue though for someone to try it.

I was hoping they would pull a little more travel than that though actually. My stock 57s pull 11.5 from flat to fully drooped.

These probably have a way better spring rate though.
