I am needing to order a leveling kit and was looking at the two listed.

Kore kit = $335
Lorenz = $565

Lorenz offers both 6% and 23% grade springs and Kore has one size fits all spring. Other that that I see that both lits are the same.

My question is that I have a heavy front bumper and if I went with Lorenz I would need to get the 23%. Kore says that there springs are made for the heavy front ends but what if you didn't have a heavy front end? Would you get more lift?

 

I would have to say yes to your question about more lift with a lighter front end, based on my experience with my Thuren lift. I got 2.5" of lift on my MegaCab and others are getting 3" out of their QuadCabs.

 

probably more noticeable because of don's soft spring rate. are you running the kings as well?

 

I don't think you'll be happy with either spring....KORE and Lorenz both run a spring rate well over 500lbs....for the 6%.....

 

So what about the Lorenz 23%?

 

i have the 6% springs on mine and it leveled it out nicely. id do it again if i had to. plus it stiffened the suspension up a tad, rides nice now. not like a truck so much..

 

Rattles your teeth loose...somewhere a few pounds either side of 600.

 

i believe that's incorrect. it would take a spring rate of 50% or more over stock, to get a rate of 500 lbs., not 6% or 23%. superlift makes one of the stiffest springs, and their's is 420 lbs. lorenz coils will be slightly stiffer than stock, while don thuren's will be slightly softer, which is why king shocks are recommended with don's.

 

that is rediculous!

 

Yes, I am running the Kings.

 

i am jealous!

 

this may be a stupid question but why dont you go with a set of spring spacers instead of new springs?

 

Okay....I guess you're the expert

 

Pretty sure stock springs are right at 400 lb. My first set from Don were about 330 lb springs. The set I have now are closer to 360 lbs. Both KORE and Lorenz are over 400 lbs.

 

has nothing to do with being an expert (or being sarcastic instead of just saying you were incorrect), but giving info that's nowhere near accurate to someone looking for info to make a good choice. not to mention making a claim about sean's products resulting in poor ride quality, which is untrue. if you busted your butt starting and running a company like sean, don thuren, or mike (lazarsmith), you wouldn't want people making up info on your products, or how they performed.
