3" drop coils, trade for stock or 2"

3" ground force (summit) drop coils for your stock coils or 2" drop coils, no charge but you pay for shipping both directions. My coils have maybe 500 miles on them.

They would have worked great but I am a dumb @$$ . I got a new grinder the other day and was kind of impatient to use it so I cut off a coil before I pulled the 3 " coils out. Turns out the coils you gave me were 2" drop coils, so after the coil I cut off they are now 3" drop coils. Now I have 2 pairs of 3" drop coils ha ha . I r DUm

That what I figured , did you pull the coils from the burb yet? I'll meet you half way if you want to swap for my 3" coils. I want to get my blazer on the road so bad but my very small budget it going toward my crew cab right now so I dont want to have to pay any $$$

Crossy, the wire itself is 3/4" and the overall height standing it up on the small coil is 10.5"

Re: 3" drop coils, trade for stock or 2"

I haven't yet, debating on if I was going to or not. I need to keep it somewhat mobile so I can get rid of it easier.

Re: 3" drop coils, trade for stock or 2"

No problem Bob, too bad I wasted those springs... I forgot to mail that burb title to you, I'll get it out in the morning.

Really? Nobody wants to swap me?

Re: 3" drop coils, trade for stock or 2"

You can have my stock ones. I pulled them out and know that they are stock!
Just call me and we will figure out when to get them. If your want to come up to Longmont I can take them to work one day. I may even consider going down another inch if I loose my mind (more than I have). So you could have my 2" at that point.

Re: 3" drop coils, trade for stock or 2"

Adam, it was good to meet up (once we finally found each other). Glad to think that those ones will get the Blazer back on the road. I am still trying to figure out if the 2nd will work for us or not. But, I will let you know.

Thanks again, I am so excited to get my blazer driveable again. I ended up with the day off today too!!! I'm going to pick up the new tires for my crew and cut a coil off those springs and then I'm going to try to swap springs in the Blazer and get the top pulled off. I hope I have enough time
