Whats the difference?
« on: Jan 17, 2010, 04:23:41 PM »
Whats the difference between the 5" springs and the Heavy Duty 5" springs? And do the HD ones affect the flex of the springs?

Are you talking about trail gears springs? If you are you may not get a answer.  But I think those HD springs are for trucks equipped with v8.

they are also not for people with the heavier engines but for a heavier truck all together

actually if u read TGs site.. it tells you what they are for and the difference.... :twocents:



Quote from: TrailGear Site
Now our front 5" springs are available in a heavy-duty version with a 25% higher spring rate. We have added a 7th leaf and readjusted the length of the leaves to match. If you are running a larger v6 or v8 motor you will appreciate the extra weight carrying capacity of these springs.
