9.5in. x 5.5in. x 1200# Front Spring

The 9.5in. x 5.5in. x 1200# Front Spring by Landrum Springs is an essential suspension component for vehicles requiring precise load support and controlled axle articulation. Front coil springs form the foundation of any independent suspension system, managing vehicle weight distribution, absorbing road imperfections, and maintaining ride height under dynamic conditions. Whether you're rebuilding a worn suspension, upgrading to better handling characteristics, or restoring a classic vehicle to factory specifications, selecting the correct spring rate is critical to achieving predictable performance and safety.

This Landrum Springs front coil spring features a 1200-pound rate, meaning it requires 1200 pounds of force to compress the spring one inch—a specification that directly influences ride stiffness, body roll characteristics, and vertical compliance. The 9.5-inch free length combined with the 5.5-inch outer diameter provides optimal packaging for most modern and classic front-end geometries. Landrum Springs are manufactured using high-tensile steel wire wound to exacting tolerances, ensuring consistent spring rate across the full compression range and delivering longevity even under aggressive driving or heavy-load conditions. The specific dimensions allow smooth integration with standard control arm mounting points while maintaining proper suspension geometry alignment.

This front spring suits mechanics and enthusiasts performing complete suspension restoration, performance upgrades, or OEM replacement work on vehicles designed for this spring rate. A 1200-pound rate is commonly found in light-duty trucks, compact SUVs, and sport-tuned sedans where a balance between ride comfort and handling precision is desired. Installation requires proper spring compressor equipment and suspension knowledge—never attempt to install coil springs without appropriate tools and experience. Verify your vehicle's original specifications and application requirements before ordering, as spring rate selection directly impacts ride quality, handling, and load-carrying capacity.
