Does anyone remember what the springs rates are for the 2" HD rear springs. I think they are they RR2-1, but I can't remember and the gray powder coat flaked off. They used to have them listed on their old site but not anymore.

I'm trying to decide if I should stay with them or switch to the OME 762.

Thanks.

They used to offer a medium duty spring and posted the different spring rates on their site.

I have the same ones RR1-2. I find that they are a little stiff for my needs and not sure if the 762's will be what I am looking for.

762 is stiff too.

I was thinking they might be looking at the spring rates, but since the 762s have progressive rates i was thinking they would be a little better than the RTEs.

Cool. After looking at it some more I am leaning towards the 781s, they might be more what I am looking for.

Thanks for the help.

ome's tend to sag, with in 18 months my truck sagged to left side ome told me it was a 1 yr warranty, so i got a new set...two yrs later and it was lower at the rear and to the left, this time I took and maked where each was being used, compared to the old ones from the first removal and used all 4 tall springn, shimmed the rears to match the front level and then shimmed the left a little higher... 7 yrs later it looks level.
im in the middle of resto so Im considering a new suspension set up.
