Coil Over Shocks
I'm wondering if 300#Fnt and 220# rear springs will be too much? I have heard that 200# and 250# are the best. I have a toyota 4AGE and
stardard frame design.
What do you recommend????
Tks, Stan

Sounds far too much to me.
Talking to Darren George of GTS (who is a suspension man) reckons 275 front. 175 rear.
Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want!!!

Comes down to weight of car and how you like that car to behave
My Daughter has taken over production of the damn fine Triton race seats and her contact email is emmatrs@live.co.uk.

Shock angle will make a huge difference as well, If your upper bracket is outside the upper rail or under it. The ratio of your lower arm length and
lower shock position makes a big difference as well. A 200 lb shock mounted more vertically could be stiffer than a 300 lb shock at more of an angle
or farther in from the ball joint towards the center of the car.
