I see all these guys with coils laying around, think I must take someone up on a set to play with. I need to "invent" a better suspension setup if I go through with the reclassification of the weight carry capacities of the Sani. Even if it is just a once off for the testing.

Does anyone else still have(reasonably new), front coils lying around?

P.S. is it true that the 4.8grx front coils are slightly longer than the 4.5 coils? How does the coil lengths compare to the 4.2 pickup's front coils?
