Question about Santhuff springs
 
I was thinking about ordering a set of these springs for the front of my car. I called them and they said they needed to know the front end weight of the car. I don't have any way to find this. I know the car weighs @3200 w/driver has a small block with aluminum heads full interior and a 8 point roll bar.
Anyone have any idea what the front end weight might be or what spring i would need.

Instead of popping for a set of four wheel scales, I have taken my car up to the local feed mill and they will weigh the front, rear, and total weight of the car on their truck scales. Last year I needed to know the weights to order some Cal Tracs rear springs and this method worked well and it only cost $5 or $10 to get it done. The resolution of their scale is 10lbs so it is not 100% precise but it will work well to find out your front end weight.

They are just trying to get you the right spring the first time. We use, and are a dealer for, Santhuff and they are the best shock or strut we have ever used.
Call me if you want to know anything about theur products.
