Could anyone confirm that these are the AEV High capacity HD springs 3"? Trying to confirm the part number.

These look to be the HDs.

Blue color are HC, grey color are SC for Gladiator... now, whether they are gas or diesel is another question. Here's the only pic I have of my FRONT GAS version HC coil currently in the JT.

Found another post that had pics..

So can confirm my original post fits the Gas gladiator and is the High capacity 3".

I called AEV they told me the fronts are what is different between the Gas and Diesel since the diesel has a heavier engine.

i installed the AEV HD springs in the rear of my 2019 Gladiator Rubicon ecodiesel in conjunction with my Icon Stage 7 (2.5" lift) kit and airbags because of some sag in the rear.

Some important backround: I have an Alucab canopy camper with second 12 gallon water tank, 50Liter National Luna fridge, full rear seat deletes, Goosegear cabinets, ARB full front bumper, Warn winch, EGR and catalytic converter system full delete and engine remap, .....altogether weighing 3200kg fully laden with primary tank and auxilliary 35liters full.) No issues with front suspension except the "death wobble" which was completely resolved by changing the factory panhard with a Clayton. Our Gladiator has been deployed almost exclusively on overland journeys - Baja California, Western USA, California to Alaska in Oct-Dec (f---g cold), recently 5months of 70% offroad in Peru/Bolivia/Chile/Argentina/Uruguay.)

The engine and suspension revisions with AEV HD springs and airbags in rear was working beautifully through Peru and Bolivia UNTIL the left rear spring broke and punctured the airbag! (BTW, the ecodiesel without the EGR, DEF, Catalytic converter system ran amazingly with so much torque and extended power band also at altitudes frequented between 4000 to 5800meters!)

So, i'm looking for a better solution now without airbags.....anybody have any suggestions, please? (Didnt seem like the AEV HD springs were all that HD, except maybe the load rating will require even more HD springs?)

looking for good advice..............

So, now i',

First off, you typed your reply INTO the quote from the OP. Be sure to type BELOW the post your are replying to.

Second, you needed HC springs AND helper bags? My dude, if you have that much weight it's time to either lose some gear or upgrade to a bigger truck. I don't think you'll find a better spring than the AEV HC unless you get into full component swaps out of larger trucks, and at that point you might as well just get a bigger truck.
