Got a friend with stock 06 coils and 3 inch coil spacers. I want to go back to closer to stock height. Will his coil springs work on my 97 and his spacers?

 

[colton3]

Come on. Surely someone has to know

 

[baer's cummins]

Yes they will fit, however your ride will suck. The 3rd gen coils have a higher spring rate so it will be a rough ride.

 

[colton3]

Are they just rough on our trucks or is it the same ride quality you would experience in a 3rd gen?

 

[baer's cummins]

The 3rd gen is heavier so the spring rate is higher. If you put them in a lighter truck the spring rate is too high. I would probably compare it to driving a 1st gen as far as bone jarring ride.

You could try locating some PowerWagon springs...or give one of the big guys a call... Thuren or Carli. They will get you set up for what you need.

Well I can get the springs and spacer from my buddy for like 100 bucks.

 

[baer's cummins]

Gotcha. You could always just give them a go and if you don't like them just resell them

 

[colton3]

That's actually a good idea...

Or just use the spacer on your coils.

Never mind saw that you have superlift coils on it now.

 

[colton3]

I have 6" coils. I want to go smaller. Not bigger

 

[honestcharlie56]

are they from a gas truck. The gasser 3/4 ton springs would be an improvement over stock 2nd gen diesel springs.

 

[colton3]

No they are from a cummins
