    Matt - going back a few posts...

    As I recall I had the OME992 springs, but I think I can dig up the paperwork and find out for sure.

    Damnit i'm an idiot. The previous post with spring specs was the REAR springs (DOH!).

    OME990 = WK MD = XK LD = 14.56" free height , 8.9 coils, 530 lbf/in, 18mm wire
    OME991 = WK HD = XK MD = 14.37" free height, 8.9 coils, 630 lbf/in, 19mm wire
    OE Spring rate = 440 lbf/in

    OME990 with 1 coil removed:
    12.92" free height, 7.9 coils, 600 lbf/in

    OME991 with 1 coil removed:
    12.76" free height, 7.9 coils, 710 lbf/in

    According to Phunkydude's garage thread, he had the OME991's.... which makes sense why the ride sucked with 1 coil removed! 710 lbf/in spring rate My OME HD are firm enough at 630...

    So, keeping with the theme, I think im going to try the OME990's unless kmax confirms that phunky's garage thread is wrong and they used the OME990s.

    I'll just have to decide how much I want to cut off. With the 5.7L XK, I believe the lift achieved from the OME990 springs is under 2", so I may try cutting 1/2 coil off instead (which also should account for the preload spacer that comes with the superlift):

    OME990 with 1/2 coil removed:
    13.74" free height, 8.4 coils, 560 lbf/in


    Or maybe intall the OME990s uncut to get a baseline to work with first. That's what i'll probably end up doing...
