Spring rates

[Sunk]

I want to go up to 6" of lift and would ideally go with the Skyjacker soft-ride coils, but found a set of trail master coils for $50...

I wanted to know how the spring rates compared, I don't need super soft; the JDs I have now with the F-150 spacers still flex pretty good.

As far as I know, Skyjacker has the softest spring rate of all the TTB lift coils

Yeah I know Skyjackers are the softest, I was just wondering if the Trail Masters were one of the notoriously stiff springs.

I've heard Rough Country's are pretty stiff. Not sure on Trailmaster.

Do you know the wire diameter on those coils, and how many wraps they have?

 

[Sunk]

I dunno the wire diameter, but from the CL add I can see 12 wraps per spring.

I also found a set of Superlift 5.5s.... those are stiff as well correct? I may go with the Trailmasters since I'll be snagging a set of leafs from the guy.

12 wraps is above the average, I'd say for $50 it's worth a shot.

Trail masters are pretty stiff... The super lift springs seemed softer than them.

Well Im trying to get this set up for cheap right now, I can always sell em and go with the Skyjackers later.... Thanks.
