Currently running OME J springs with the following hub to fender flare measures:
LF 22, LR 20.5
RF 21.5, RR 20.5.
Rig measures were done with ARB bumper, Warn Winch, Dual Batteries, Campteq roof tent (150lbs), solar panels, Landtank Sliders, ARB rear bumper/tire carrier, LRA 42 gallon spare tank (empty), 50lbs of tire chain and a steel rack (50lbs).
I dont know what half the stuff weighs on my rig but I'm a little surprised how I'm about stock height with J springs. Either they're worn or I've well exceeded the 220/400lb ratings?
I'm shopping around for Dobinson springs that would work better towards 3 inches of lift.
I've landed on the linear 3" Front C59-170 and Rear C59-153 (good for 800+ lbs)
However, I'm also looking at the 3.5" Dual rate C97-144VT (220+lbs) C97-145VT Rear (400+ lbs)
Should I just jump to the 4" springs?
