My Duster Adventures

So the rear springs worked out? The front segment is straight?

I found pictures of my MP springs in the car and out and they were deformed even after they were back out of the car. I'd forgotten how bad they were.

Yeah they look good as far as not being deformed. The only gripe I have of them currently is the fact that they currently aren’t anywhere close to a “zero arch” spring like they’re supposed to be. I bought the front spring hangers with the two sets of holes, installed the springs in the top hole and still had to run 3” drop blocks to get the car down where I wanted it. If the springs level out in the next few months, I’ll just pull some blocks out.
My old springs had settled to zero arch but they just didn’t have a high enough spring rate. My brother, his wife, my wife and I went on a 2hr roadtrip last Christmas and the bumps were BRUTAL with two people in the back.
