coil springs what to get?!
 
so i have rusty's 4.5 coils with 2 inch spacer and i can't get my fingers in between the coils i have a 4.5 pack with 2.5 shackle in the back and my front is almost 3 inches lower in height. so what i am looking at is the IRO coils i want to go with the 6.5 coils but want to keep my spacer if i can are the IRO rated bigger then what they are or do they run smaller. i will also be doing a FST 3 link soon so i want as much flex as possible. i also have a winch and winch bumper out front so i need to support the weight of that also. any other ideas on springs no rusty's or RC i want some of the best if i can.thanks

I haven't found any difference in coil springs. Just look at what there rated at and pick the firm or soft springs depending on what u want. Ditch the spacers too.

no spacers and RE 5.5 inch coils are great in my opinion, but check spring rate/ longevity of the craftsmanship.

well IRO has a life time warranty on there springs and they have a 200 lbs rate on them so i have been leaning towards that

and why ditch the spacer aren't those suppose to help when you have heavy bumpers armor and stuff like that bc mine will be getting a cage soon too

yes they can help but it's just another area of weakness to break... limit your weak points for a reliable rig

Best? Deaver. I love mine. 5.5" coil, a tad under 300 bucks for the pair.
