I've aquired a set of stock springs from the front of a 95 2.7 liter Tacoma. I want to find out what the spring rate is of our stock springs and compare it to the spring rates in these things. I wouldn't mind a little stiffer right, but these springs look 2-3 times the size of stocks. I'm just gong to cut them to the same hight or maybe a little lower than stock, and try to install them. Oh, I picked up some 4 piston calipers while I was at it. That is my next project. So, how bad is increasing the spring rate going to be?
After I get the info on the spring rate of the truck springs, and the rate of the stocks, I'll post to compare. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
