Compiled 80 series suspension component spec thread... shocks, coils & more. (4 Viewers)

[Nad Aitch]

C59-175v is a 65mm lift coil for no load but if you add some weight the stronger spring rate will kick in

@crikeymike and/or @David Otero can you clarify this? Exit off-road markets this coil as follows-

Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series and Lexus LX450 1990-1997 2.0″ lift with up to 660LBS, or 3″ lift with up to 330LBS

Also the ancient spec sheet from 2017 seems to indicate it has the spring rate as the 223v.

Is it possible to get an updated data sheet for all your coils?

Is the 175 vs same spring rate as the 223v, simply 20mm taller?

Thanks

Which would you recommend for a 2-3 inch lift with about 450lbs constant / 600lbs surplus?

Let me update this thread.
Based on the bump stop distanced inside the springs of front 50mm and rear 105mm for stock lift.

This is with 5,880lbs. Front is 2,760 and rear is 3,120.

On the 2861 fronts there is about 90mm. 1.4" lift.
On the 2862 rears there is abot 105mm. 0 lift.

On the 2850j fronts there is about 143mm. 3.7" lift
On the 2863j rears there is about 165mm. 2.4" lift.

One thing I haven't noticed mentioned, or remember is the clearance problem with the OME BP51 shocks on full compression.

The brake line bracket on both sides will serve as a hard bump stop on the shock body itself. I relocated them outboard about 3/4"

The right side is a bit worse. The short hard line is also in the way. Gotta bend the bracket too. View attachment 3872517

What did you end up doing?
I didnt see this, haven't be here in awhile.
I would of sandwich in a set of coil spacers, you can get them up to 50mm.

C59-175V
465/475mm free height
19mm wire
205-245lb spring rate

Basically yes, just like the 223V but taller

C59-175V - 2.0″ lift with up to 660LBS, or 3″ lift with up to 330LBS
Those will be ideal as long as you're ok with that lift height

Perfect thanks for confirming!
I have a set of 223v - I was considering upgrading for more load capacity but it sounds like a spacer (which I already have) would do the exact same thing. My tail end is about ~550 over stock day to day, ~700 loaded for trips.

No worries

Yeah, spacers would basically give the same result

The 2861 and 2862 with 1" spacer rings.
