Desolate V562 VS Q80 Springs
Posted: Thu Sep 17, 2020 9:28 am
Is anyone familiar with the V562 spring? I see it is described as a race spring but with additional load capabilities.
How would it do for an occasional daily driver? Mostly used for tent camping in the mountains and to run sweep for NASA Rallies. Being an East Coast guy I don't get to see desert areas like most of you here.
I do see my fair share of fire roads (we call them truck trails) in the state forest areas. Those are a sand clay mix. Some hard and compact others lose deep sand.
Want something I can enjoy a long highway drive hauling tent camping gear in the back and enjoy a weekend of spirited fire road exploring.
Most springs I see are either too stiff and make highway driving miserable or too soft and sag after a few years of use.
Atlas does offer what they call an expedition spring. It is a progressive spring pack with additional load carrying. I am afraid it would be something like a stock spring with add a leafs.
Deavers usually are soft springs that tend to sag after a few years. I realize all springs sag but Deavers tend to do it sooner.
