Does that pic give you everything you need? I should have some other angles if you need them, I have the rear spring pics also..

Does the 13.25 go to the top edge/tip of the last coil?

It's been awhile since I took the pics/measurements but I'm pretty sure I stood the spring up and dropped the tape measure to the floor and read it at the highest part of the spring. All of the measurements were done with a tape measure and eyes so no fancy measuring devices so +/- human error/lazy eye/beer in hand?

[Matt]

lol sounds good. Tape measure accuracy is all i need for this project

Hey Matt, I got stock WK CRD springs lying around. I'd be happy to take some measurements if you need any. For what it's worth, there was a noticeable different just by eye when I was comparing Hemi XK springs with my stock WK CRD springs so the OME catalog could be using any WK/XK spring.

[Matt]

That would definitely be helpful man... more info the better!

LOL youre crazy matt... but this is educational and ill be staying tuned.

[Matt]

Jacob could you post up more pictures of that spring? Need to estimate the number if effective coils so I can calculate the stock spring rate (assuming material properties similar to OME)

Rears - just so they shown somewhere.
Small Diameter at top and bottom 5 3/4" (14.6cm)
Larger Diameter of center coils 6 3/4" (17.15cm)
Overall length 13" (33cm)
Space between coils 2 1/4" (5.72cm)






All the springs are stock 2007 Hemi Commander with tow package (I think the tow package made a difference in springs somewhere didn't it?)

the more i thought about this, the more im intrigued by your findings..

im trying to see what to match the OEM hemi coils up front with in the rear- when i throw them in the front with the 5100s adjusted to 2".
