Alternate rear spring options?

[slater]

Anyone know if there are options on the way to swap OEM rear coil springs for coil springs designed for a heavier static load (+200lbs ish)?

I will doing the same thing whenever my 2022 comes in. Currently running +4 Deaver hd on my Gen 2. Will need to upgrade for sure. Payload is up 200 pounds but that will not cut it. I bet this spring Eibachs will have front rear out. Hopefully in. combo pack and save a couple $.

I have custom +750lbs deavers and happy. Just call them and tell them what weight you need.

Not quite that straightforward on a Gen 3.

Ox - do expand on your statement. I envisioned it was as simple as swapping the coils out in the rear, guess not?

I would as well. Not understanding why it would not be as easy as swapping??

Sorry guys, I should’ve quoted the post above mine. What I meant was, it’s not as easy as calling Deavers and telling them what you want, since they really only deal with leafs and, as we all know, the G3 has coils.

I agree with others here and would go with Eibach when they have something available.

Maybe not now but there will be a 1/2 dozen aftermarket options for rear coil springs. Not every company has gotten their hands on the new Raptor to dedicate development time. Everything is probably a good year behind where it would have been if the works did not shut down.

What do you guys think of these spacers? Might be a viable option for those folks who had to run a 1.5” spacer up front to fit 37s with aggressive offset and want to get some rake back for hauling:

Add ride height to the rear of your new Gen 3 Raptor. Our rear spring spacer kit allows you to add 3/4" of height with a simple upper plate kit in the stock spring bucket. This kit is easily installed above the stock spring and will raise the truck up about 3/4 " Since the plates go directly...

Yes would work for that but I need some plus 1 or so, 500 lb increase load springs. Coming from +4 HD Deavers on my Gen 2. I want the same capacity.
