OME 4" springs vs. Currie 4" springs

I gotta ask, did you have to used spring compressors to install the Currie?
I got the rear in without them. I used compressors on the front. I probably could have got the fronts on without them if I had disassembled more, but the compressors made it easier.
 
I recently swapped out my old 4" RE coils for the Curries.
The long free length at full droop makes a huge difference.

Thanks for the pictures. I am going to ditch my 3" Curries for 4" and curious on your setup in front. Are those 14" shocks in front? Also how much bumpstop do you have? Thanks!

Thanks. My front shocks are Rancho 5000x RS55255,10.73" travel (5.5" up travel, 5" down).
Bump stops are set at 3" due to the collapsed length of the shocks.
Maybe If I went with extended shock mounts and 12" shocks, I could probably get away with 2" or less.

Thanks! Good info to know. I assume you are running the 5256 rear?
