Could someone with the knowledge kindly fill in the specs for different body types. Ill send a follow up email to mark to find out what the best shipping price is per package and we will confirm an order with him. That is I'm assuming people are still interested in a group buy? Oda70 is the pair your talking about ordering part of this buy?

L18_B110 - with 200-225lb fronts what spring rate would you suggest for the rear on a ute?

Also what do you suggest for a ride height or lowering spec? I don't particularly want mine slammed maybe just over the outside of the tyre.

Just for the interest of this buy, Ive yet to measure the specs will sometime this week but although not slammed the mono leaf would be better close to flat with only a slight angle this will make the car low enough the first time and maybe not sure o this but maybe able to raise the height with stronger rear gas shockers as Ive always had issues with non factory replacement rear shock absorbers always raising the rear up way more than desired on previous rides.

My advice is to talk to some experts and make your own decision. The stiffer the rear spring, the more tendancy the car will have to oversteer. Bear in mind that you can't make a stiff carbon monoleaf softer, but if you find its a bit too soft, you can always add a swaybar to make it stiffer and fine-tune your handling balance.

I will try and get some more info and ask king springs about they leaf package rate. Mark said he had the info about the spring sizes already. Only two options with height aswell.

125 lbs sounds about right as coilovers could also be used for extra adjustments.
