Re: Spring rating?

I don't know for sure but I would say yes. Closest I have for comparison is LMC and there is a different number for Smallblock and big block front springs.

Re: Spring rating?

in the back of a Moog spring book there is specs for each spring. talk to your friendly local parts store and see if they will let you gander at it for a while.

Re: Spring rating?

It would be a lot easier to change this now, before I install this assembly. I just don't want to go up any higher. I like the rake I have now.....

Re: Spring rating?

Steve, I think your springs will fit in the pockets of the Burb suspension. I believe 73-87 springs work on the 67-72 trucks and vice versa just fine. I have seen TxFirefighter point this out a few times as he has done alot of suspension work on different trucks. You playin' hooky from work today?
