Default TerraFirma Coil Part Number Question?

TF +3" coils are the TF027 and TF052 right? I need to convert my rear airbags to coils. I'd like to do that, rebuild the rear driveshaft (u-joint and roto), and swap my front diff out this spring break, it's too early in the year to go to the lake or beach for spring break, so I'll do the next best thing... working on the rover.

Those coils will get you a 3in lift.

I'm looking for a 3 inches of lift, RTE doesn't off their 3 inch coils anymore, and OME doesn't (from what I've heard) offer 3 inches of lift or handle well with extra weight. I'm putting 255/85's under le truck, I don't know if that'll work with 2" of lift, if it does, I'll grab them, but I'll have weight on the truck too. Anyone know were I can grab some 3'' coils if the TF ones don't work? O:

dunno how much more weight I can fit in and on mine.

I stuck pucks in to get desired height front to back

I guess that's an option, but I would rather have a full coil. I'm pretty good at solid works now, maybe I'll design a spring and use the TF HD coils spring rate but just make it a taller spring. How's the ride on your truck with them compressed like that? I'm looking for a stiffer spring because I'm gonna link the truck front and rear might have to remove my sways, hopefully not.

surprisingly, smooth. equate to throwing a load of extra weight in the bed of a 3/4 ton.

We have stock on the RTE 3in coils. But on a D2 they are 4.25 inch

255 85 are about a 33 and should work with the TF052. But like Zack said if you put on a heavy winch bumper you may need more lift.

If you want to get a 3.5 lift with a heavy bumper we have a new TF kit. In this picture it is using a Tactical Rovers front bumper and Ironman winch with a synthetic line sitting on 33in Nittos.
