drop springs
Here are some measurements of a set of drop springs uninstalled, I was wondering if anyone knew what size drop they would be installed?
Front 11 inches Rear 9 1/2 inches

Re: drop springs
The rears are either 5" or 6" because I bought 4" springs and they measured at least 10"

Re: drop springs
How much more differently would they compress compared to stock springs? have a stock set of springs I could measure and compare.
