I might be the only one interested in this cause I'm probably the only one here that can't do the C2C drop. The SOS is a POS(too much$) and after seeing those pics that Jonathan posted there is no way in hell I'll get the DJM, no offense to those who have it, looks killer but these WI roads are unforgiving. Anyways, I contacted coilsprings.com and got this reply.

Hello Josh,
Yes, we can. I will need to know the O.EM. Coil spring part numbers that are currently on your vehicle. Driver and Passenger side.
We will then engineer a coil to drop the front end 2.00”.
Do you want to maintain the O.E.M. coil spring rate or do you want increase or decrease the rate?
Cost: $186.75 pair
Thank You and please call me at 785-437-2025 to discuss the design.
Kevin

Just wanted to get some feedback from you guys who have more experience with suspension setups. If some of you guys are interested maybe we can get a group discount or somthing. Like I said I'm probably the only one here interested but maybe you guys could help me out with some of the info this guy needs. Thanks!

Sounds cool....I would get a 1" drop springs in the front for mine...that way I can put it on my sos drop in the front that way I can have a 2 1/2 instead of the 3" in the front like the DJM..I would think that the .5 would make a difference..:dontknow:

That's pretty cheap for a front set. I would definately want to go 2" in the front with the stock coil spring rate...

i would much rather had a coil spring and c2c than the djm up front....


edit......you wont be able to align a 2 inch drop. 1.75 is at the limit (c2c).

also, a drop spring will ride like crap. it rides into the stroke too much. sos rides harder bc of this. i pay big $$ for someone to come out with a upgraded strut........

Anyone know where to find the part numbers for the driver and passenger OEM coils? I assume we want to keep the stock spring rate, right?

if you do it, you will want a stiffer one, so you are not bottoming out all over.

It would ride much the same as the SOS, wouldn't it? I'm willing to try it. I would just go the SOS route if someone would sell me their front perches for cheap, even then 1.5"s is not enough. Jon, do you know the part numbers I'm looking for?

Why you selling it? and for how much?

It doesn't work with the set of tire I have right now. I'm not going to buy new tires just because, The ones I have had less than 3k miles on it.

Don't know how much yet but only selling the front not the rear blocks. :top:

I just got back from using the truck and ......
