A tried setup is best as Eric suggested.
In the rear, a 350# spring will drop 2 inches (if sitting straight up and down) supporting 700# on either side.
If you know the uncompressed spring height, you could estimate the ride height from those figures.
Also check with Eaton or other quality spring Mfg., they'll know exactly what you need.Last edited by SBC; 08-03-2007 at 08:56 AM.
