hi all,

do you think or know.... if a camper Westy Synrco has stronger OEM springs than the ones on a Syncro tintop?
I would think so because of all the extra weight ie. cabinet, kitchen, poptop, propane tank, water tank - but I am not sure at all....

I know there's a difference between 2WD and Syncro...

thanks

There are different color striped springs, the colors identify their rate.

As far as I know, the USA syncro springs will all be the same. On IG-16, they list only heavier springs for the Ambulances and other weighted vehicles. All the stock springs I have seen are too rusty to make out the paint marks!
