[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 10153432, member: 20202"] Yes the OP was inquiring about spring rates but as you know other aspects of the suspension should also be considered. Pulling springs is not a walk in the park and can be very dangerous if not done safely. If he decides to install bushings later on he will be pulling those springs out a second time. Replacing the bushing is not a fun job to begin with but I find it best to do everything at once and not several times but that is just me. Hard to say what the lube intervals need to be. Every 10,000 miles or so would probably be a safe bet. I bought a tube of Prothane super grease :rockon: [url=http://www.jegs.com/i/Prothane/311/19-1751/10002/-1?CT=999]Prothane 19-1751 Prothane Super Grease[/url] and put it in a grease gun. This stuff won't ooz out like petroleum grease. I put grease fitting on everything that pivots including the upper A-arm bushings. [/QUOTE]
