Can anyone tell me if I have triple rates just by looking?

I hope so. I was told I would be getting them. And, it was shipped directly from RK.

Hmm, now I'm a little worried. I waited and requested the triple rates 2.5" and didn't think to check if they were the newer springs until reading this thread. Anyone have any ideas? My springs definitely look different than olyelr's, but maybe he got a 3.5"...

I wish RK would have labeled them differently, it would make this a lot easier.

MTR, yes my springs are the 3.5's. They are pretty darn close to the same as yours the way I look at them.

I was told mine were going to be triple rate. I don't necessarily think they arn't, but this thread has me wondering now. I know they came directly from RK, so I am thinking they may be... but they hardly took a week to get here so that has me wondering too...

From the pics ive seen, your springs look like the triples. The rears are not linear by the looks of it

Great, now something more to have to pay attention to when I get my kit. I just ordered my 3.5 max flex through Rebel w/ King 2.5 adjustables on Monday. Then I read this thread. I sent Taylor an email, reminding him that I actually don't need the kit for a while, as I still have to buy the beadlocks and tires. Hopefully I get the triple rates.

If the rears are coiled at the top similar to the fronts then I'm pretty sure you got the new triple rates. If the rears pretty much look uniform through the whole spring ie: space between coils is the same throughout, then you have linear rears and progressive have the old set.


Quick Reply: How are your RK triple rates?
