I plan to do this next year, so if anyone is looking for some 933's on the cheap, let me know so I can get into the 934's ASAP and report back.No, I didn't. Wasn't thinking about the 934's at the time, but would like to hear his opinion on it.

Are you keeping your 942's?I plan to do this next year, so if anyone is looking for some 933's on the cheap, let me know so I can get into the 934's ASAP and report back.
Thank you sir! I have been trying to locate these specsFrom JKS regarding their TJ coils:
Spring rates are 150/200 front and 190/240 rear
Heights are
2" front 19"
2" rear 14.125
3" front 20"
3" rear 15.125"
This took about 10 minutes to get by email.....wish I knew the "secret handshake" it takes to get SAVVY to respond.

For some comparison, assuming JKS and Nth will lift the same Jeep the same amount...
Nth 3" front 20.75" (softer than JKS 3")
Nth 3" rear 14" (stiffer than JKS 3")
That is a hellaofa stiff rate for the rear.

Splain Lucy?
190/240 rear? If that ain't LJ specific, what is?
Not really, my current BDS are 200lbs. You will be riding in the 190lb section unless you are loaded down. Then you will be glad you have the stiffer rate.
I keep looking at those numbers as well and thought that same thing. I guess we both came away from the coil spring thread with the same thoughts. However, we don't know other things like coil diameter and how tall the soft section is vs the short section. So although I agree with your conclusion, I don't think we know that for sure.

You wouldn’t happen to have the spring rates for the Nth 3” springs to add to the uncompressed lengths? I’m compiling dataFor some comparison, assuming JKS and Nth will lift the same Jeep the same amount...

Nth 3" rear 14" (stiffer than JKS 3")
I'll go a step further and suggest that the differences between two coils of varying rates that provide the same or very similar ride heights will very difficult if not impossible to distinguish. When I was figuring this out a few years ago, I found that the difference between the softest and stiffest rates on my spreadsheet was about 20%. We simply don't have a very wide range of rates to choose from.
You just need to throw more sh— on your rig brah!I'm struggling with this, being my OME 942's are 160lb in., and hold their own well to being on the stiff side when running light. I think I'm drinking the in./lb rate kool aid brahs.

I don't know, looking at rear springs OME makes rear TJ springs anywhere from 140lbs to 250lbs. Thats a difference of 79%. Obviously they would give you drastically different lift heights on the same Jeep though. ....
