ive doe some research and i havent been able to find what iam looking for. ive got a dana 44 eb under my 95 ranger and when i pulled it from donor vehicle it had a lift on it... so i used the coils.. id like to go up another inch or 2 to level out the truck... now iam not too sure on what coils to go with. the ride i have now its not tooo bad but offroad its STUPID stiff.. id like to stick with eb coils due to the way they fit in the coil buckets.. i believe the coils i have now measure out to be 17 3/4 unloaded and 16 1/4 loaded. ill remeasure to double check.. what size coils would you guys recommend?
did some research and saw a few of these

BC Bronco coils FTW. These things flex AMAZINGLY. I have them in my TTB right now and will use them when I swap over to my D44 I'm narrowing.

BC Bronco coils are too stiff for a SAS Ranger.IMO.


If Sampson doesn't take my 6.5" set this weekend then they will back on the market for 80 bucks plus shipping.

This is what I use.

Loaded they are at 17 and 3/4 which is about what you want right?

The picture of the coils on the website is a bit off though. This is what it will look like. They ride nice and have awesome flex!

I know the owner. He was my YMCA soccer coach back in grade school. I have been getting everything at cost!!!!!!!!!!!! Toms a nice guy.

By the way. You can't find a better deal than these!!! look at the price!!!

I'd prefer a linear rate over variable rate coils due to them limiting stuff.
