spring rates

[Bhintz]

I know theres a table in the tech. section but whats the spring rate for a 6 INCH TC ez ride or 6 INCH BDS spring

 

[88K5Jimmy]

BDS told me that the 6" spring for the 2nd gen K5 was around 450in/lbs.

 

[88Silverado]

BDS also told me the rate for the 4" is 450 too

BDS told me their 4" was 425. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Just a small correction....but springs are rated in Lbs/inch.

The idea is that the "number" tells you how many pounds of weight it will take to compress the spring pack 1 inch....

what about the TC rates

 

[77Jimmy]

According to Tuff Country's website, the 6" front spring is 465, the 6" rear spring is 425. Hope I read that right... TC leaf spring rates
