what would be the difference between these springs and a set of trailblazer springs that have some dead coils cut off?

---------- Post added at 09:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

and how would these compare to 5305s?

i guess some could put a 2 inch spacer and make it a 4" drop spring? do you have numbers on spring rates?

or
- 6 inch coil with 2 inch spacer

for people that want to do 4 inches in rear these are the things you need for best ride
the belltech 3-4 rear kit
rear djm hardware kit and I include new short bumpstops
rear belltech sp shocks
560 shipped

you will need to do the free travel mod.

if you want the best 2/4 kit and have a autoride truck that link above is what I run on mine and its great. also added in the spohn panhard bar and spohn lower a arms. It just depends on budget you have set aside.

But when i tried buying your old 5305 springs you said you ended up switching back...

If the trailblazer springs ride better than the 5305s, and the new 6 inch springs are better than the trailblazer springs... My thinking would be to put a 2 inch spacer on the new 6" spring (since spacers only affect height, not ride quality)


Ill leave this alone and do my own trial and error. Ill probably start with 5305s

The 5305 i went to due to the towing issues with the smaller tb coils.

Tony, with the 6" spring and air assist bags do you anticipate any issues towing? At some point I think this truck will do some pulling (enclosed single car trailer).
