Landrum Progressive Coil Springs for circle track cars give you rugged and dependable performance that’s trusted by racers nationwide.
Progressive Coil Springs for Circle Track Cars
In the 1960’s, Landrum Springs owner Robert Landrum, who was also a dirt oval racer, used his racing experience to engineer high performance racing springs that quickly became popular with local racers. As oval track racers nationwide discovered the performance advantage of Landrum Springs, the company became the go-to source for high performance racing springs.
Today, we continue to work closely with racers to deliver the best performing progressive rate coil springs. We ensure Landrum Performance Springs Progressive Coil Springs deliver the performance, durability and long-term consistency racers need to take the best set, every time.
What’s the Difference Between Progressive Coil Springs and Constant Rate Coil Springs?
While constant rate coil springs are wound to have equal spacing between the coils, coil spacing of progressive springs varies with narrow spacing at one end of the spring, and wider spacing at the other.
Constant rate coil springs compress at a linear rate, meaning rate of force needed to compress the spring a certain amount remains the same. For example, a spring with a 300 pound-per-inch linear rate (also known as the rate of deflection) will compress one inch when 300 lbs. of compression force are applied. The spring will compress another inch if an additional 300 lbs. of force is added, and so on.
With Progressive rate coil springs, the rate of deflection increases as the as the spring is compressed. The spring has a softer rate at the beginning of its range of travel. So, it can easily cushion small compression forces and shock loads. As compression forces increase the spring progresses to a higher rate to handle larger compression forces.
What’s the Benefit of Progressive Springs?
When it comes to circle track racing, the initial lower spring rate allows the suspension to smoothly take a set as the car enters a corner, and the higher spring rate comes into play as spring compression load increases when weight transfers as the car progresses through the corner.
What Metal are Landrum Springs Made With?
Landrum produces coil springs with the highest quality US made High Tensile Chrome Silicon Alloy Steel. This results in springs with superior strength, reliability, and the ability to retain their original high-performance qualities after repeated use.

Landrum Performance Front Drag Racing Coil Springs are designed to deliver the performance, reliability, and consistency you need to win. Landrum front 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 1/4-mile 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.
Front Drag Racing Coil Spring Rates
Our Front Drag Racing Coil Springs are available in a range of rates including:
- 150 lbs./in.
- 165 lbs./in.
- 180 lbs./in.
- 200 lbs./in.
- 225 lbs./in.
- 250 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.

Spring Compressor for Long Length Coil Springs
This Spring Compressor makes it easy to install our 18” Front Drag Racing Coil Springs. Standard spring compressors just aren’t long enough to properly compress 18” springs, but our spring compressor is. The spring compressor is inserted through the top shock absorber opening and a long length threaded rod allows the compressor fingers to reach down to the bottom of the spring. A position adjustable bearing located toward the top of the rod seats on the top of the shock opening so the threaded rod turns freely when the spring compressor is tensioned or loosened.
Retail Price: $169.00

What Are Tight Helix Coil Springs?
Landrum Tight Helix Coil Springs feature more coils and tighter coil spacing. This allows for a higher spring load rate with less travel. They also achieve coil bind faster than conventional springs.
Tight Helix springs feature closely wound coils for a higher number of coils per unit length than a spring with a wider pitch. This allows for a more compact design compared to wider pitch springs.
Many racers and dealers asked Landrum to make these springs, and we delivered. Multiple test sessions were performed to ensure the perfect tight helix rear coil spring.
What Are the Benefits of Tight Helix Coil Springs?
- Reduced spring bowing which avoids shock damage that can be caused by spring contact.
- Improved handling, braking and acceleration.
- Short spring length/high load spring rate provides for a higher spring rate in a confined area.
How do Tight Helix Springs Improve Handling, Braking and Acceleration?
The increased spring rate of tight helix racing springs helps to minimize body roll when the vehicle is subjected to lateral forces during cornering. This leads to more stable and predictable handling.
Tight helix racing springs can help improve the stability of the vehicle by reducing pitch and dive under braking and acceleration. This ensures that the tires maintain better contact with the track surface.
