Front Drag Racing Coil Springs
Landrum Performance Front Drag Racing Coil Springs are designed to deliver the performance, reliability, and consistency you need to win. Landrum drag race springs are taller than OEM springs and use softer rates to give your car the correct ride height while providing more stored energy for instant weight transfer during launch. This helps to give you increased torque control, reduced wheel hop, and faster 60ft and ET’s.
Landrum drag race springs are available for the front suspension of GM vehicles and are offered in configurations to fit OEM A-Arms and Aftermarket A-Arms with no modifications required. Springs with a 5” outer diameter and 18” length are available for 1964-1972 GM vehicles, and springs with a 5.5” outer diameter and 18” length are offered for 1973 and newer models.

- 150 lbs./in.

Technical Information
All front springs are closed and ground on one end to provide proper contact with the frame. The opposite end is either open to properly fit into the lower control arm of OEM A-Arms or closed for Aftermarket A-Arms.
Landrum Performance Front Drag Racing Coil Springs are light weight, high travel and made with the highest-grade High Tinsel Chrome Silicon Steel wire.
The drag race springs are cold wound, not hot wound. Each is properly heat treated and stress relieved to ensure the sides of the spring remain parallel during installation.
All Landrum Front Drag Racing Coil Springs use standardized testing procedures to ensure the best quality and performance.
Our springs are powder coated and not plated which avoids hydrogen embrittlement, a condition that can be caused by electroplating and can weaken metal.
Each spring is manufactured with the highest tolerance in mind and is designed with the correct pitch and height ratio to insure a consistent rate throughout the entire cycle.
