Landrum Coil Over Barrel Springs avoid the bending and bowing issues associated with long length coil over springs.
High travel coil over springs with lengths more than 4 times their width have a tendency to bow when compressed. The greater the length of the spring, the more it can bow. Causing spring rate inconsistency, and possibly cause damage to shocks if they make contact. Our Coil Over Barrel Springs use a barrel shape design to prevent bowing when they’re compressed. Thereby maintaining spring performance.
How Do Coil Over Barrel Springs Prevent Bowing?
- The conical shape of our Coil Over Barrel Springs allows more even stress distribution across the length of the spring, which provides lateral stability. Making the springs less prone to bending or bowing sideways during compression.
What Are the Advantages of Coil Over Barrel Springs?
- Provide more consistent and controlled weight transfer during cornering and acceleration. Keeping tires in the best contact with the surface.
- Increased spring travel before coil bind.
- Lateral stability keeps the spring properly seated.
- Avoiding bending or bowing keeps the spring from rubbing against the shock body, which could damage the threads of the shock adjusting perch.
- The barrel shape allows for efficient use of materials.
- By tapering the spring, it can be designed to be both lightweight and structurally sound.
The Best Materials and Engineering
- Manufactured with only the best grade of high tensile chrome silicon alloy steel for strength, durability, and lightness.
- Designed using the latest spring design software and state-of-the-art engineering technology.
Intensive Quality Control Processes
- Tensile and compressive stiffness of the wire is checked before the coiling process.
- Springs undergo an intensive heat and press process.
- Each spring is individually tested for quality and consistent performance.
Dyno Sheet
- Every Landrum Performance Coil spring comes with a dyno sheet that shows the dynamic rate and force output of the spring in 0.200” increments. This allows you to know exactly what the spring rate is and means when you change a spring, you know exactly what change is being made. No other manufacturer does this.

Coilover Springs
Landrum High Travel, Lightweight, Precise and Dependable Coilover Springs
Race proven Landrum coilover springs are specially engineered for high travel applications including circle track, drag racing, street and offroad. Manufactured in the United States with the highest-quality Chrome Silicon steel wire, our coilovers are engineered for maximum high travel performance, long service life and to be lightweight. Every spring is preset to solid height during manufacturing, allowing them to be compressed to solid while providing consistent high performance throughout their range of travel. Using incredibly precise manufacturing tolerances, we ensure all our springs perform exactly as they were originally engineered. Each Landrum coilover spring comes with a dyno sheet showing its dependable performance.
Available Coilover Spring Sizes
- 4-inch to 22-inch lengths
- 1.9-inch to 3.75-inch ID
- 50 lb./ft to 850 lb./ft spring rates

Landrum Performance Conical Coil Over Springs taper from a 5.0” OD to a 2.5” ID to prevent bowing that can occur with long and slender coil over springs. Using the proper hardware, the high travel, low-rate conical spring can be used as coil-over springs or conventional mount springs.
Durable and consistent Landrum Performance conical coil springs are designed for circle track, dirt late model, and pavement late model cars.
Advantages of Conical Coil Over Springs
- The conical spring shape provides greater lateral stability to avoid lateral deflection.
- Conical coil springs allow more precise control of spring deflection.
- When compressed the tapered spring coils fit into the other (coil telescoping). This decreases solid height at full compression to provide a higher range of travel.
- The linear spring rate from free length to solid height provides a more usable range of deflection.
- Lighter weight than non-tapered suspension springs.
Landrum Quality
- Produced with the highest quality US made High Tensile Chrome Silicon wire.
- Manufactured to the tightest tolerances in the industry and guaranteed to hold their tolerance to 2%. We prove it with a dyno sheet included with each spring.
- Durable
Conical Coil Over Spring Sizes
- Free Length: 18”
- 5.0” OD and 2.5” ID
- Available Rates: 50, 75, and 100 lbs. per inch

Landrum Progressive Coil Over Springs provide the reliable and consistent high performance you need to win.
What Are Progressive Coil Over Springs?
Progressive springs provide a varying spring rate throughout their range of travel. The initial spring rate is low but progressively increases as the spring is compressed. The springs are commonly used in circle track racing applications to help control body roll when cornering.
How Do Progressive Rate Coil Over Springs Work?
Progressive rate coil over springs are produced with varying coil spacing. At one end of the spring the coils are narrow spaced and as the coils progress to the other end of the spring the spacing becomes wider.
When the spring is minimally compressed all coils of the spring are active and a lower spring rate is in effect. As the spring is further compressed, such as when a car takes a set as it enters a corner, the narrow-spaced coils collapse on top of each other until they touch, which is also known as “going solid”. When this happens the number of active coils of the spring is reduced, which results in a higher spring rate.
What Type of Steel is Used for Progressive Coil Over Springs?
We manufacture our progressive coil over springs using the highest quality US made High Tensile Chrome Silicon Alloy Steel for strength, reliability, and to maintain their original high-performance characteristics after repeated use.
