I need a little help. What is the length, id and spring rate of the a stock kj rear coil spring? A note to the moderators the search function could be improved.

I only know that the 02 prelow springs are 2" longer than the newer models on the ground side by side. newer springs provide little over 1/2" less ride height when installed.

Duly noted...please post that in the suggestions forum along with you're criteria for a more "ideal" search feature. We'd need to get a site admin involved in an upgrade like that. BTW, it is a huge improvement over the search feature we had on the previous site!

The ride height difference does not help much. I would like to obtain the uncompressed spring lenght and spring rate, without resorting to removing my springs. Does someone have a stock spring laying around that they could measure the lenght for me?

Skyjump,

A think this site has better search function and also there is a post preview function: http://www.corner-carvers.com/

I have stock rear springs from my '03 in my shed. I'll measure the height later today. By the way, the springs are for sale.
