Part 65

2009 FX Nytro RTX rear springs (including optional springs)

Part 67
8GL-47473-00-00 SPRING, REAR 1 (K=1900NMM/DEG) | AP
8GL-47473-10-00 SPRING, REAR 1 (K=2100NMM/DEG) | AP
8GL-47473-20-00 SPRING, REAR 1 (K=1400NMM/DEG)

Part 68
8GL-47474-00-00 SPRING, REAR 2 (K=1900NMM/DEG) | AP
8GL-47474-10-00 SPRING, REAR 2 (K=2100NMM/DEG) | AP
8GL-47474-20-00 SPRING, REAR 2 (K=1400NMM/DEG)



Looks like the XTX has the 1900 NMM/DEG springs on from the factory (comparing part numbers), and you acan order stiffer 2100NMM/DEG springs (optional for the RTX) since the original XTX spring part can be used on the RTX (same part numbers). The price from the dealer in the states that I use is less than $60 per spring.

Another option is to buy for the rear suspensions is the Hygear torsion spring spacers (http://www.hygearsuspension.com/Product ... rings.html). They stop the springs from twisting, effectively making the springs stiffer.

I did the Hygear spacer and X-Clicker 4 sided spring cam. I'm almost 300 suited up and that config makes my sled buccaneer impossible to bottom.. $100.00 bill, total cost.

ok im still not sure if the 09 venture will fit mine but i was told here that the big boy springs were 337 a side thats why i was looking at other options .

 

[gary]

ok i was just wondering if the 09 venture gt has the same but stiffer springs on the rear as the 2010 nitro xtx , sory fore my confusion

Ever look at Star Suspensions? They have a kit for the XTX that takes the squat out of it and allow it to use all of it's travel. I'm 300+lbs suited up, and I have an xtx, and will be looking getting their kit, plus their 5-sided torsion spring adjusters. Might send them the shocks too, but I'll wait till after I've tried out the other stuff first.
