Default camburg racing kit?

So I have wanted this kit http://camburg.com/all-products/98-1...ranger-lt-kit/ for 4 years and I am getting close to the amount of money I need to buy it but I can't find pictures of the shocks or springs or bump stops that you can get with them and this is making me skeptical. Can any one tell me what 2.5×10" dual-rate r/r coils are. I mean I know they're springs, but is 10" the travel or the diameter of the coils or what I'm confused, also what does dual-rate mean? Does r/r mean rest and relaxation or what? Then the shocks are fox 2.5×10" Bypass P/B there again I am lost will some one please help me out by explaining how the inches I'm given and the letters with the forward slash relate to what I'm actually buying?

R/R = Remote Reservoir
P/B = Piggyback

Sure this kit is right for you?


Here are a few great research links for you when it comes to coilover information & will answer your basic questions related to them:

Okay that makes sense but how does a coil spring have a remote reservoir? Oh duh, it's a coil over. Sorry man I'm plumbing right now, not looking at the truck. But what about the numbers? 2.5×10" is that 2.5 inches wide 10 inches travel or what that has me confused still. And yea this is the kit I want. It's tough shit so I shouldn't break it unless I'm thrashing it. I put spindles and shackles on my a arm truck before. And I showed my buddy how to put longer coils, shocks, radius arms, I beam drop brackets, sway bar drop brackets, and a longer pitman arm on his twin traction beam ranger but I haven't got to really tear into an a arm rig yet so my truck will be my first one but I'm a quick learner.

I could give you the answer...but it wont really help your overall cause.

Take some time & check out those links. It's all in there.

You'll learn a ton of helpful information if you are going to make the jump to that rather extreme kit.
