Hey could you guys measure how high your springs are - just the springs - do not include any caps or sleeves - mine are only 4.5" doesn't that seem a little short??? NO JOKES Thanks guys.

Good thing I didn't take them off yet -I would be absolutely slammed to the ground. Do you happen to know the spring rate on the skunks - mine are 500 and 450 Pounds. thanks.

Hey just wondering if you took the perches off of your shocks when you installed them? Did anyone else with Weapon Rs take them off.
