Re: front coil springs once again

I had a set made at Coil Spring Specialties. Spoke to Kevin and told him I raced the Truck and wanted a spring to help with weight transfer. Spring ended up 14 3/4 long .660 dia. and 455# , old spring was 12 1/2 " .750 and 810# drop spring and no transfer. My front end weight is 2,115#. Have made 3 trips to the track with new spring and drives real good on top end.
