Hi Guys,
Anyone know the stock DC2R spring rates.
And how the hell do you convert kg/mm to XXXlbs? :confused:
DC2R spring rate is 250 lbs/in front and rear.

To convert from kg/mm to lb/in multiply by 56. To go the other way divide.
Eg. 24kg/mm = 24*56 = 1344 lb/in

Imagine them going over some train tracks, you'd probably do a 360.

Thanks fellas.. going by what tank has posted we're talking about 4.5kg/mm for front and back!
I always thought the fronts would be stiffer?
I currently have kg/mm springs in my car and they are 6.5kg/mm front and 3.3kg/mm in the rear.
