Coil spring recommendation for Fox Performance Elite 2.5

[Ariens]

2022 wild track with about 825lb added.

Replaced the rear springs with Eibach 300lb rated from accutune on their recommendation. Rear is perfect for hitting speed bumps hard, no longer bottoms out.

Before the truck was pretty level now it's higher in the rear. I really like the added lift too. Want the front to match lift and added performance.

Accutune recommends 14" 3.75" ID 550lb for the front.

First post here, mostly just looking to sanity check with the community.

Are you sure @AccuTune Offroad suggested a 3.75" ID spring? Those are typically found on 3.0" OD shocks, I'm pretty sure you will need new upper/lower spring perches to run those.

Unless maybe he said they were 3.75" OD?? I'm not really sure the OD of the springs, as usually the part number includes the ID dimensions in it.

Yeah, perhaps an oversight? I've reached out for confirmation. Thanks for the review.

The shock body has nothing to do with spring diameter, only the hardware for the coils dictate that. The stock front springs on the PE has an i.d. of 3.63". No doubt Accutune has an adapter to use with a 3.75" i.d. spring.

They have lots of specs in this tech piece.

@Ariens if you got our rear Eibach spring package, then you already installed 3.75" ID springs on those 2.5 coilovers using our spring adapter clips. The front would basically be the same. Sounds like our sales team has been in communication with you via email and will get you all taken care of. Thanks!

Thanks @CatMonkey

Totally, thanks all, again--just wanted to be extra careful before ordering because the nearest shop to me is 3 hours round trip... not to mention the cost of shipping/duties/etc...
