[BlueChevy07]

well building a new truck with coilovers all the way around got the rear weight down but don't know were to start on the front. Ive got 18 inch FOA coilovers the tuck is going to be lite its full tube chassi and body gutted. Ill be running a 496 big block chevy with aluminum heads. Any ideas on what rate springs ill need in the front any info will help the springs are a little pricey so don't want to order the wrong ones

you need unsprung weights of each side.
their are spring rate calcs online once you get the weights

there's a guy that's over here that told me he's weigh my jeep if I needed it for cheap. That would be your best bet get it built then get it weighed then you can figure it out better

You could call bigshocks, the guys great. He could help you more directly, and all of your questions would be answerd.

But you still have to know the unsprung weight
