    SRT8 spring differences

    Hey everyone, I know that this has been talked about before, but for some reason search is working for me.

    Someone please correct me. Charger and Magnum springs are the same length, but the Charger springs are a little stiffer and the 300 springs are softer but the rears are shorter than both the Magnum and Charger.

    The only reason I ask is that I have a buddy that has a set of Charger SRT springs that he wants to part with and I wasn't sure if this would work. Thanks.

    Charger Rears are stiffer than Magnum Rears? I would have thought opposite for the extra weight.

    I've been running the SRT8 Charger Super Bee suspension for over a year on my Magnum R/T, no known problems.....
    It looks like 2012 will be very good indeed.
    Unless the Mayans are right, then, well, never mind.

    I think you have them a little confused.

    The Charger SRT springs are about 25% stiffer than the 300's. The Magnum SRT spring siffness is less than the Chargers, but more than the 300's. Magnums have slightly longer springs due to more weight in the rear of the vehicle, but many people have used Magnum take-offs on the sedans without a problem.
