Leaf spring identification

[grozam]

Just picked up an 81" CJ7 not too long ago and it looks to have new leaf springs on the front. There is a part no. sprayed in yellow on the spring BUR-4014. Does any one know what brand and stiffness it is? Trying to find out if it is a lift spring or not.

Hmm ok, what do you want to know? If you can post pictures that may help. What do you want to do?

grozam,are you sure there is no other letter or # in front of the B. By the picture it's hard to tell because of the tie rod in the way. It's possible the spring is custom or has been re-arced by a local shop.

There isn't any other letter behind the tie rod. The spring perch might be covering something as I can't see under it. It has 33's on it and appears to have some lift. The spring doesn't look stock to me so I thought someone might know it as an aftermarket spring because of the way the number is sprayed on it in yellow.
Here's a shot of the front end

Hard to tell from the picture but,........Based on the sway bar angle and the link being a stock length one............. I doubt there is much lift.........Normally a longer adjustable link would be needed when lift has been added.

That's a good point. I don't think it's lifted much if at all. Mabey 2" at most. I does seem a little higher than stock though. It is taller than my 99' Silverado z71 4x4. It's snowing right now so I don't want to uncover it because it doesn't have any side or rear windows on it. Would a measurement from the bottom of the front bumper to the ground help? It's 22" there.

Grozam, Go back to the #6 post here and take the link that Old Dog posted. That may be of some help..............the reality is that is so hard to tell with all the variables that can be at play..............tire sizes, add on equipment,front and back all adds or subtracts from the ride height.

14and1/2" to center of hub to ground and 22" mount to ground. My shackle bolts are 3and1/2" center to center. Jeep is probable not stock hight.

I'm suprised no one here has seen these springs with the yellow lettering. I have found them in a catalog. They are 1-1/2" lift springs from Rough Country suspension systems.
