Anyone using Walcks springs?

The A1 and the Tux are getting new springs this summer. I'll be putting BDS on the A1, but I'm considering the Walcks spring for the Tux?

Looking for feedback on the Walcks springs. Thanks.

 

Link? If they don't specifically say that they are made for them, they will be the Omix-Ada springs that are available from all the Jeep retailers.

 

Crown offer OE type springs, but I do not know the source or whether they are same as the ones Carl offers. Why not ask him?

 

The Crown web site only shows springs for 1976 and later, which won't work. It was my understanding that the only source for stock replacements currently are the Omix springs, or custom from one of many spring shops.

If you have a spring shop nearby, check out whether they can put together some replacements.

 

There has been at least one recent thread about the Omix springs, and that did not turn out well https://www.google.com/search?q=site:earlycj5.net+omix+replacement+springs&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 - the purchaser chose to send them back.

Good looking springs ... at $580 plus shipping for a complete set, they are in the same price range as BDS without shocks (My BDS springs were somewhat less than that, but that supplier is now gone). You can buy SkyJacker springs from Summit for about that price. http://www.summitracing.com/search/.../1974/make/jeep/model/cj5?N=400135+4294893518

 

. I think so too, I will probably give them a try.

 

I like "USA made". Glad to hear you're happy with yours. That's the kind of feedback I was looking for. Thanks!
