Can torsion springs be re sprung ?

[snowbeast]

Thanks for the info, I felt that my 18' has been soft since new. Luckily the factory high setting is about right for me. I've had the gas psi checked and raised a bit but no significant change. All my cats I've had with the same chassis would be on the low spring setting and still be firm.

So what is the stock gas pressure to set the shocks to?

I'm pretty sure Travis at BOP has them.

I still offer those. Uses a ss hex that is replaceable if it would strip. Also the adjustment hex is not on centerline of rotation so easier to adjust.

200psi but gas pressure is meant to help the seals seal and operate the ifp not hold sled up but it does very slightly. Most would not notice 50lb difference.

I have bent the SHORT leg on torsion springs to further adjust them to my liking. 5k miles with no problems. Hygear does this also.

Does this require heating the leg up with a torch?

The part number is, SMA-8JP39-BL-00. I should have included it earlier. It's in the Viper section of accessories, same chassis.

There is a 5 position billet aluminum block available , for those who really need more torsion spring preload.
