Hey Guys,
I have had my comptech springs for some time and can no longer find the spring rate tags that came on the springs. I want to know the individual spring rates for a possible upgrade project I am considering.Thanks.

Come on guys. The spring rates were in every box of comptech springs that were sent out.
Somebody??

Yep, I had them on mine. Although, shouldn't the rates be different for each spring produced? Yours may not be the same as mine or anyone elses. BTW, I threw my tags away.

I guess all springs are not created alike. Now what do you do, take an average?

Hey Al,
My front is stiffer than yours!
But my rear is saggyer. Ha Ha!

Does anyone wonder why all the cars look different with Comptech springs...

Does this variation only occur with the Comptechs or all other springs too?

Yassireee! I've got the ultimate "rake" look. It's so low when viewed from front and I love it that way.

I hope your bum doesn't get nicked.
