Good info, its a start.... I'm impressed with how the ride is with the 2/4 belltech but it definitely is no performance spring. Hopefully one day someone will come out with a performance rated spring or coil over for these trucks. But I don't think there is enough market for that to support the R&D to produce them.
I doubt anyone is going to make one.

You can spec one out however. It's easy if you have coilovers especially. There are a lot of spring manufacturers that can make custom length springs and what not. They just aren't cheap.

I was told 3 years ago there was not a large enough market froma rep at Eibach. How large do they need?

Ive thought about contacting Don Thuren at Thuren Fabrication, he makes custom and progressive rate springs for the Hemi and Cummins 4x4's HD's and they usually are around $600ish. I'm pretty sure that if there is enough market for it he would most likely produce them on a as ordered basis.

I'll have to look up his old contact info and see what he says.

well maybe If I can get enough interest from the forum I can send it to him. Its been years since I talked to him, hopefully he remembers me, but either way I'm going to see what can be done.. I didn't even think about it till this spring rate conversation. I've just kept searching for soil over or other performance spring options.

No go, Don emailed me back this morning and he is playing with the new ram changes to the 4x4 and sticking with that... I wish I knew how to make springs...
