Hi chaps.
Ive searched and searched, and seen the comments on EFS springs.
The question I have is this.
When Ive looked at the website, it says that they have slipper pads between the leaves, but when Ive looked at some, they dont have any slipper pads in them, they look just like a normal set of leafs.
Are these old or new stock??
Cheers

The comfort range have slipper pads & are more expensive than there normal stuff which don't have slipper pads

Ahh, many thanks.
Are the comfort springs a better buy than the normal ones??
I currently have ome dakkar 70 to 110kg front springs and the 250 constant load rears, which both have slipper pads on them.

I have the EFS springs, i got them with a complete lift kit for my lux, had them on front and rear but now only have leafs on the front....
They flex really well and ride well.
To give you an idea, and they are the ones with the slipper pads.

Mate runs efs in his and i'm 99% sure they have the slipper pads and i'm sure they all will have them in some form one thing with his the front sagged as thay all do but about a month or so after fitting them with the correct packs in the correct side. Took it back and was all sorted without any hassle so good service. Always had good service at carrols unlike arb

yeh i superior engineering added an extra leaf to the pack, didn't restrict flex but the springs did sag a bit on the drivers side..
When i went to the surf coil rear i removed the fuel tank and put it in the rear underneath the tray wich solved the prob of the sag...
Good springs but.
