Best way to get rid of coil springs in rear suspension?

[skegpro]

Hey so the torsion springs in my 2015 T3 are as soft as Bill Clinton out on a date with Hillary.

What is the best way to rid myself of this cutting edge technology?

I was looking at the raptor XM - Ace setup but for the price I could just about buy a complete new skid......

I'm not really up on rear suspension technology can someone please school me as to what my option are?

Thanks!

Well for one thing I think you mean get rid of the torsion springs. And the ACE is a good way of doing that.

I second this post. Ace = best solution. There are others but ace is second to none

Between Ace and Bakers rear arm and shock ?
Any one prefer one over the other and if so why?
Thank you

Have heard the ace is good from a few people. But with the CAD dollar a full raptor setup is pricey, been watching for second hand setup or a place where a guy can buy refurbished or rebuilds.

Is Baker still in business? His website seems to have disappeared......

I was also thinking the same thing as you but the kmod kit.

May as well upgrade to a coupling suspension if spending ACE $$$$.

Hmm 2k for a complete rear skid doesn't seem too bad.

I have been on an EZ ryde carve, ive been on a K-Mod , Ive been on an ace, and a ZRP Z motion. so far the best for me was the ACE, but the price is steep. I have one for my T3 but for my 14 154 i run spring spacer and a Z motion with the torsion springs. your looking at big money for the the complete skids. But you can make a few minor adjustments at 1/4 the cost. its all in what you want and how deep your pocket book is

You could always just put the higher rate torsion springs in to keep it on the cheap and invest some money into the front as well.

I have no idea on the pricing but Rasmussen runs titanium Renton springs on the front of his sleds and has Renton do a block kit with rear titanium torsions. It works well for the XM.



As much as the dual rear torsions are an old design there is something to be said for simplicity.

There's a guy on here that's selling spring spacers to help with sag. One nice thing about being stock if you break something it's easier to find parts, and that might save a trip one day.

The factory fat boy springs from brp work well... I put them on my 174" and it more than did the job
