Softest riding coil springs

[BoHunt]

Im looking to get the softest springs possible for my Jeep. I was either looking at the 4.5” Evo plush ride springs and the 4” Synergy springs. If y’all have any input or think one is better than the other feel free to fill me in! If you select “other” let me know what brand is a better option.

I don't think Evo will share their spring rates, but Synergy has them on their website.

With the Synergy 4" springs running 120F/180R at ride height, the front is even softer than a stock Rubi, but the rears are pretty close to most lift manufacturers rear rates.

Yes I called Evo today and wouldn’t tell me

They look like single rates, if you can find the unloaded length somewhere, you could calculate it.

I wouldn't buy from a company that wouldn't educate the customer. Sounds like, "Hey, buy my stuff because it's the best". Why is it the best? "Because it's the best, yeah, buy it!"

I couldn’t agree more

I had EVO springs on my diesel jeep for a year, they rode really nice but they really started to compress after more gear on the jeep and I was back to stock height. I ended up replacing them with rock krawlers 3.5 springs and terraflex 1” spacers to get my jeep back up to the height I like. Right now my jeep feels like a tank getting in, no movement at all. I keep the tires at 27 pounds of air and the ride is very smooth.

I have the 3.5” MC springs right now which are similar to the RK and they are great, I’m just looking for something a little softer. I have SDI Eclik shocks which help with load after I adjust them so I’m not as worried about extra gear or hauling.

Good idea!

Bo,

Do you have a long arm kit installed?

I have the 3.5” gamechanger lift. The only things I don’t have are the front lower control arms because I bought all the arms at separate times and haven’t got them yet.

I wonder if Accutune could help you source some, they have eibach make them some for their lift kit.

I've heard they're a real game changer.

I don't have experience with stock length control arms on the JLU.

But, my best ride with short/med control arms with previous Jeeps was with OME or Rockjock springs.

Note: I cannot express enough how important tuned shocks and bump stops will make.

To @JEEP4U 's point, which maybe he/she/they wasn't overtly making, springs control ride height and shocks control damping (ride quality as it relates to compression and rebound).

If you like your ride, it may be the shocks, not the springs (in fact, it's much more dependent on shocks than springs). Conversely, if you don't like your ride, it may be your shocks, not your springs.

When someone refers to "softer" springs, it makes me think softer ride, but that may not be what you (OP) mean.
