New springs fitted and the ride height is about 2 inches high so all good Thumbs Up

I went for 7" 550 lbs springs and I am glad I did not go for 8" as these only just went in Laughing

Why do you add distances to the top and bottom end of the vertical axle of the brake likage?

Helper springs are good for more duty. But you don't have bumpers any more.

Thats not the best way to save the funature inside.

To be honest Arlo I am not sure about the first one that is how they were together before when I took them apart. I will look at taking them out as I understand what you mean it does not need the small washers in on the arms, not sure why they are there to be honest.

With the helper springs the rubber had to come out to get the springs in on mine as the rubber is about 3.5" in diameter but the internal spring diameter is only 2.5". If anyone knows where I can get some narrower ones then I will of course put them back in Thumbs Up

I beleive the wide track ones are narrower in diameter?

Wide track ones are 2.5 so they go inside the spring

Ye that's what I thought Thumbs Up

Do I really need them though?? Mine were never touching anyway and surely the spring does a better job that the rubber now?
