78/79 coils have a smaller diameter

Yeah 78, 79 series are about as small as they come from a production 4wd of decent size

a chippie i did a job for put 5 inch nissan coils in the front of his 79 for 2 inch lift because the guy he bought them off said that they had more coils in them so they would be stiffer and flex better.

i wasnt part of the conversation he was saying this in but i found it hard not to worry about what some professionals are saying...

i thought 78/9s flexed better than patrols anyway

what thickness is he actually after? The diameter of the whole coil spring or the diameter of just the spring it self?
