Off Roading KORE Alpha VR springs application?

[Briman]

I was at a railroad salvage place yesterday and found some Kore VR springs. They are labled "KORE alpaha driver" and KORE alpha Passanger" if I remember correctly. Does anyone know their application? I know that the Chase kit I put on my truck was not labeled driver and passenger.

I just got there kit and mine are labeled like that also.

The VR coil springs with the Driver and passenger labeling are the latest version of the VR coils (alpha). They are side specific.

Thanks for the info. I imagine that the new coils are improved some way. Do you know what the changes are Marek?

My understanding is that they are designed to further improve the ability of the truck to track straight. With the fuel tank and driver both on one side, the stock truck has a tendency to be slightly heavier on that side. The newer design helps to further address that issue.
