AFCO shocks

[AHall]

AHall: Do you have a part number on those springs? I bought 7" Afco big guns for the front of mine, but I haven't ordered springs yet, originally planning on just running the stock springs.

I am also very curious how they work out for you.

I went afco big gun t2's. All the way around on mine. Used cpp tower delete and eye to eye on the front. I may be able to reference part numbers if needed. Also if anyone wanted to host some pics I could text them to ya.

Crap, I didn't realize you had a 2wd!

Just for reference... I put my stock '06 Dodge 2500 4x4 springs that I cut one cool off and ground relatively flat on a press with a bathroom scale under it. At .8" of compression I consistently read 275 lbs, at .5" I read 165 lbs, so I would call it a 340# spring in its current form. Stock would be something less.

These 700lbs springs are almost not enough. 1.5" of upward adjustment with only engine and trans.

Could have gone with 10" instead of 8"

I'm referring to springs.

Very true. These will get me by until I get some corner scales.

On edit I believe he told me they don't make the 10" spring in 3.5-2.5 at 700

 

[Mountainman234]

Oh that may be true

I can save you guys some money on these shocks if you want. You need to have exact part numbers and p.m. me.

Not to mention when they get tilted in you loose a percentage of rate.
