    OK so as some of you know.I started my new job about 2 weeks ago.Well what i do is custom springs.I do torsion,compression to expansion springs.We do everything from door stops,mouse traps,planes to commercial truck springs.

    We also do custom as well.I am going to start working on 2 front springs for my truck thar can take more abuse than my stock springs.There going to have more give,but yet will be allot stronger at the same time keeping them the same size as my stock ones.I will keep ya'll updated on how it goes.

    It's gonna be abit man.I gotta work on them in my own time.Gotta take one of my springs out and do a compression and expansion test on them and see what breaking point is.Then gotta make a program for my custom springs and test a set first to see if it will muster on where i want to be at.Then test various metals to see which is the best for my application.Then get them formed and test those out all the while in keeping with a size thats my stock springs.So ya it will be abit.Will def keep ppl updated.

    I know, it will be interesting to see, as well as seeing if you can use the springs instead of the leveling kit.
