OME 600lb or King 700lb rear coils

I've got Icon overlanding variable rate springs. What I don't like about them is they seem to quickly drip an inch down to 3 inches. I know they are supposed to under weight but it doesn't seem like it requires much weight to do so.

Anyone happen to have experience with King 700lb and OME 600lb rear coils?

I don't have a steel rear bumper but I do pack a bunch of stuff when we go out.

I just don't like losing an inch of clearance in the rear. Also don't like losing the rake. I like the rake.

 

What is the initial rate and the final rate? I would guess the initial rate should be higher than the stock spring rate in order to prevent a lot of that initial sagging.

I bet if you got a single rate spring that accounted for any additional constant weight you have(over stock weight), the sagging with your added trip weight would be a lot less.

I recently got heavier-than-stock rate dobinson springs (271lbs/in), and I wish they would have settled a bit more lol. They’re the perfect spring rate for my constant weight, but just a smidge too tall. Last week I added probably 200 lbs for a camping trip, and it maybe sagged a half inch tops.

Basically, I think your problem is that you have more than one rate on your springs, so if the initial rate is too soft for your constant weight, it will compress down to the point where the heavier rate starts to take effect. I’d try to get a spring single rate spring that closely matches your constant weight.
