Stock 340 springs vs comp 901-16

All good, K6.

I just wanted ask about the 'maximum recommended lift' spec that you spoke of in post #30. I have looked through all listings in the full Comp catalog and in your link (which I do refer to regularly in my searches) and can still find no specifications for 'maximum recommended lift' listed by Comp for the 901.. or for any of their springs for that matter.... just a coil bind height.

As far as I know, nothing changes in the spring in terms of fatigue or spring rate all the way to coil bind height, but I thought maybe you know something on that matter that I don't.

In their list of spring pressure vs. heights in the full catalog, they stop at 1.200" for the 901 but I can't see where that means that this is a maximum compression that they recommend. Heck they list a pressure for at least one spring at a height that is .010" SHORTER than coil bind height... what's up with that !?! So I don't attach any particular meaning to where the pressure values in that chart stop. As far as we know, the spring testing tech had a case of the runs on the day he was testing the 901's and never finished the pressure chart below 1.250" LOL

And understood on the 340 HP's but I am not sure that is what the OP has on there now. I thought the reference to the HP's meant the MP red springs one can buy today .... are those the same as came on the stock 340's?
Well, the catalog I'm looking at may be considered "vintage" by some now, lol! I believe it's an '03 issue, and One can never rule out errors in the data tables so...........
Here is the chart by line in that issue for all the springs w/the specific specs for the 901's;
Installed Ht.- 1.650"
O.D.- 1.494"
I.D.- 1.080"
Max. Rec. Lift- .400"
Spring Rate- 353#/in.
Part No.- 901
# of Springs- Single
Damper- Yes
Spring Height(inches) / Spring Load(lbs.)
2.300 >1.750 -------------
1.700 / 83
1.650 / 101
1.600 / 119
1.550 / 136
1.500 / 154
1.450 / 172
1.400 / 189

1.300 / 225
1.250 / 242
1.200 / 260
1.15>.950 -------------
Coil Bind- 1.100"
There is a separate table with a list of spring-sets that shows the 901 outers w/o a damper & lists the coil- bind at 1.160" ?!?!
