    I have the C51-052 in the front of mine only recently fitted but they have raised it too much even with bar, winch and dual batts.
    Will likely have them taken out when we get to Melbourne around the 24th, need something rated around 180lb from advice received. Maybe we could sort something out?

    Really?

    What's your measurement from hub centre to guard?

    Standard from RAVE is 500mm (+,-15mm)

    I had C51-042 springs which are 190lbs. When I added my winch and winch craddle to my alloy bar, they dropped too much.

    I went to C51-052 but they are 30mm shorter free length. While the height was perfect (for me) at 530mm hub to guard height but as all new springs will sag, they wont be high enough once that happens. It's been about 2 weeks and they are down to 515mm already. My next fix will be fitting 30mm spacers.

    Happy Days.

    I searched around plenty when I bought mine and found they are usually about $220 a pair.

    Happy Days.
