Spring rates

[WhyNotJeep]

For all of us doing the lift mods, knowing the spring rates in pounds per inch would be helpful. When I was doing the JK, I knew what the spring rates were of several. I don't know any of them for the JT. I know and understand the rears are multi rate for a good reason. Fronts mostly linear for a good ride. If you know of any list them here. Most are made here in Calif at the Betts plant in Fresno area but they will not give out that info. .

There's a couple of threads on spring rates - but no solid info. Some may be multiple pages as they've been looking for that info for years.
So likely, if any are known, it's already posted in those threads.

Here is what I got from eibach back when I ordered my springs.

Front: E30-51-024-02-20 has a spring rate of 150 lbs/in

Rear: E30-51-024-03-02 has a spring rate of 175 lbs/in to 275 lbs/in

These have been great both on road and off when paired with Bilstein 5100s

Good luck! I recently tried to find info as well, and couldn't. I couldn't even find what stock JTR spring rates are, but was told the JTR has 3 different spring rates depending on options?!
You can find nearly every spring rate for stock and aftermarket JL springs...not so sure what the big secret is with the JT platform?!

The demand for the Wranglers and others is much higher, more are modified, there's a ton more interest. The Gladiator is a more limited audience. It's no secret, just fewer people with different priorities.
Look at it as a people searching and the amount of interest, not that it's a secret.
Plus the JT is newer.
Most of the Gladiators in Iowa are stock, my guess would be that most Gladiator owners don't give a rip about spring rates while some of the Wrangler owners would.
