SG Springs

[revor]

Okay so I've started the ball rolling on getting some springs made. I may have even found a set out of a truck so we won't have to take Graham's truck apart!

Who's of a mind to have some if we can do it for say under $100 per spring?

I'm in, but it would be the next spring before I could pull the trigger, but definitely near future.

If they ain't Graham's springs, I'm not budging (J/K)

I'd take a set. What is the amount of lift you are anticipating?

 

[revor]

I'm thinking they will be about 2.5-3" depending on the load on the front end of the truck.

And they'll be just like Graham's but I think I'll have them powdercoated pink!

Did you call rovertym? For a while, they were testing progressive springs on a few trucks in my area.

What's your timeline to availability? Want to know when I should start filling that piggy with change?

Pink ain't right.

 

[Andrew Walcker]

You know you want pink springs

Say it isn't a...A.... Ahhhhh.... Mary Kay Defender!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought about talking to Steve at RTE but I thought I'd give my local guy a shot first.. He's currently interested and any $$$ he makes will be given to a great charity by purchasing parts from ... ME Well I don't really know about that part..

Oh yeah, Pink Panther! I think your on to something w/ pink springs!

 

[revor]

Keith,

I'd be in for a spare set. Just for info I got about 3" lift when I installed them. Right now I think they are down a bit, but I do have the DII tower rings on there, so I get 1/4" from that.

cheers

Been saving that pink D90 pic for the right moment!

How has the sway been on your 110 w/ the SG springs? If I remember right I don't think you are running sway bars? I've got the RTE springs and really like them off road, but they are a little soft for anything on road or fire roads. I'd like to find somehting in the 2.5" - 3" lift range that is a little firmer. Sounds like the SG knock-offs may be the way to go.

Keith, what is your thought on the difference b/t the SG VS the RTE ride characteristics?
