Cherokee Front Springs

I decided to throw the dice and swapped my cut stock coils for a set of Cherokee springs. I am amazed by the difference in stored energy. I shouldn't be. The cherokee springs were 18.5 inches free length and squashed down to the perfect height. I used to be able to lift the bumper by hand an inch and now I can pull it up 5-6. I ran it last weekend with full exhaust, n/a and breathing all the hot air from under the hood and ran 13.1 @ 100 mph, the best i have ever done with out nitrous. I'm headed back to the track this weekend and am hoping for a shot of the front tires off the ground.
