stock spring
who in the world would have one of those laying around? :shock:

I'll get it soon for ya! :wink:

want the length of a OME 927 as well

stock 14.25 inches
OME 927 15.50 but coils are a lot larger of course like the CRD ones
get your lift not by length as much as diameter of the wire/coil

This is what I got them CRD springs compressed to before my butt really started to pucker.................

Uncompressed they measure out at 14".

I remember when we were going to do Sean's Rusty's springs
He kept saying we can do it this way its cheaper,
when the compressor started to slip he jumped back and said he thought maybe we'd better take them to the shop :wink:

Measuring a front shock looks like you need to be about 11.50-11.75 to get everything together, and that's stock, not counting the extra thickness of a spacer lift in there.
So with that maybe have to get them down to about 9 inches possibly.........................

That what I was figuring and the pucker factor was already at alarming rates :shock:

So I went on to cleaning the daystar pieces, found someone took a chunk out of the top one and also used some sort of silicone epoxy of some kind or another on the rears :dizzy:

Well a couple of beers later they look much better but still have to remove some rust that is epoxied to the rear ones :ROTFL:

I think my buddy has another set of compressors at his shop, so tomorrow I just may try two sets and some air :wink:

Oh ya and where has Sean been anyway?

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:11 pm

Sean has a new home and I think busy with his various ventures.
If I knew where it was we'd invade him but he hasn't shared that info yet. :ROTFL:

We've been trying to get together as he is trying to get me talked into buying his old place. I don't think the neighbors would like a 32X48 two story barn built in the back yard though :wink:

Build a big enough fence and you wont have to worry what the neighbors think. He must be in Ottawa Hills then :shock:

Ya mean like if ya just scroll down a few post you'll see the same dang post? Ya mean like just plain stupid people that should be sterilized at birth? :jester:
