    4in springs and raceland vs jom?

    So I'm just curious where I can get 4 inch springs that will work with the jom raceland rear sleeves. Also are the jom and raceland coilovers the same? Thanks for any help!

    first of all measure the diameter of the jom/raceland adjuster. or the inner diameter of the spring that came with it. cuz thats the info we need to help.

      Hyper coil makes 4" springs.
      It won't fit the JOM adjuster though. It's barely a MM off.

        why wouldnt the spring fit the jom adjuster? what adjuster will fit the springs? because doesnt hypercoil make 2.5, 2.25, and 2 id springs?

          if you do use 4 inch spring, you might need shorter struts because you dont want to bottom out.

                Diameter of the JOM adjuster is too big. I'm talking from experience.
                You can take the adjuster off, flip it, screw it back on the sleeve, and then it will fit, but since flipped you can only lower it half way now.

                If you have the adjuster you'll know what I mean.

                  So what size springs would I need? And I could turn that lip down on my lathe right?

                    Yeah you can put it on the lathe, of course.
                    And IDK. It's the JOM adjuster that's funky, not the spring.

                      But 2.5 inch springs will work if there flipped?

                        Jom springs are a little on the tight side. I does help to eliminate the clanging associated with hitting pot holes.

                            We are talking about rear springs right? You'll need 60mm ID springs then.
