Good luck finding this. I would like to know as well.
IIRC, I “think ” phunky said he was going to have the stock springs dynoed but he never posted the results (or was this in reference to something else, I’m a little confused actually). Now he’s pulled the disappearing act. Hope all is well with him.
Does anyone here have a connection who will do a free spring dyno? Next, we can see if any members are willing to donate their springs for a test.

I could have sworn I remembered seeing the stock spring rates on this forum sometime in the past, but maybe I was mistaken because I searched for a good half hour with no luck before I posted asking for help. I do have stock springs out of my vehicle that I can measure, I would just have to rig up a jig to load and measure deflection. I was hoping someone had already done that work for me. 
The ARB rates I know I'm less likely to find and will probably have to make an estimate based on dimensions and Puhn's formula.
I talked to phunky a couple months ago, he said he had mostly just been busy. Though he did have his mod status removed for this forum, I guess in response to his lack of regular presence online? Which is unfortunate, he was a worthwhile contributor here.
