Soft Ride Coils?
I am looking to change out my heavy duty coils for a softer ride coil.
When I chose my 4" lift kit and its options I went with heavy duty coils for a 4 door and put them in my 2 door to make up for the extra weight from my accessories. this was a huge mistake.. this has been causing pre mature wear of ball joints, bushings and causing things to shake and rattle loose. Not to mention "THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE RIDE EVER!" on and off road
Id rather go with a taller coil and allow it to sag to ride hight rather than my current set up. I think this will help with those hard packed gravle and washbord roads. Because right now its a nightmare even with my tires deflated.. street i run 28 PSI offroad 10PSI pro comp AT's so i know its my coils because these tires are prety soft as is
What do you guys think? what manufacturer makes the softest riding coil?

from what i have been reading it seems like teraflex has the softer coils. as they specify what hight the coils give you on a 4 or 2 doors for each coil hight
