what springs did you get/have with your ground controls?

my fronts are 700.250.350 (7inch long,2.5inch diameter, 350lbs)
rears are 180.64.44. 33/38 (7inch,2.5 dia. 250lbs)

I have a stock kit and I am wondering why they used metric on the rears and standard on the fronts... and what does the 33/38 mean?

And are 7inch springs front and rear standard on gc's? I thought rears were supposed to be 8in?

I am probably going to try 400-450lb springs in the rear soon.

i am pretty sure my springs are 7" long. i know both the front and the rear are the same length in case i ever wanted to swap springs. i am currently running 450F/400R linear springs.

fyi, i think you have progressive springs in the rear. does the spring look like a progressive spring?

anyway, i call my car the "titty jiggler". i think you can figure out why i call it that. i don't daily drive my car, so the ride harshness doesn't bother me.
