Sorry, if I was at home or drove the pathy to work I would measure myself, but I am curiouse and cannot wait.

Does anyone know what the outer diameter of the stock coils are? I'd really appreciate it, I may just order up some springs if it is what I am looking for.

I can measure mine when I get home.

The inner diameter is roughly 4-4.25"

Hurry, hurry go home John!


I get all CRAZY when I decide to do something!

Yah, the inner diameter is 4 inches.

Dunno the outer

Well I guess what I really need is the outer diameter of the spring seat. If anyone has a chance, I'd really appreciate it, I'll measure it tonight when I get home if nothing else.

You will probably get home before I do, if not I will measure when I get home if you like.....if you are dying and can't wait

Haha thanks. I actually have to work late tonight so I'll likely be here after midnight. That'll teach me to take vacation! Actually, I am thinking of ordering some coils if they will fit in the seat, but I can always order them tomorrow.

You know, it should work as long as the I/D is 4 inches. The coils themselves if I remember right could handle 1/2"+ thick coil if you really wanted it too.

Just thinking out loud.

Well they should also work if the inner diameter is a little bigger than 4", however the outer diameter is also imortant so that it will fit in the spring buckets.

Well, if nobody has given you the measurements by the time I get home I would be happy to.

I won't be home until 5-5:30

I'm headed home right now. I'll get you some measurements.

Ok.. Here are the measurements of the stock coils:

outer diameter is 5-1/8"
inner diameter is 4-1/8"
Coil thickness = 1/2"

And just for fun and comparison's sake, I measured the F100 springs:

outer diameter is 5-1/4"
inner diameter is 4"
Coil thickness = 5/8"

Awww sweet! I'm gonna pick me up some Rubicon Coils for a ZJ! The guy said the outer diameter is about 5-1/4". They are way long to so if I need I can cut them down. I think these may be worth a try. They are $150 but that would be well worth it gave me what I want. Worst case scenario, I'll sell them on e-bay or something for a loss.

What is the unloaded length of the Rubicon coils? Any idea?

I can measure the length of the F100 and stock coils so we can get an idea of the lift they will give.
