Looking for G63 or G550 springs

Anyone have a set of OEM springs for G63 or G550 for sale? I believe they're the Yellow/Orange stripped springs. Looking to replace the stiff springs on my '11 G55.

THanks.

I thought G63 and 655 springs are the same and the reason G55 rides rougher is because of the shocks?

The G63 front springs are 1" longer than the G55 springs (uncompressed). Same rate, same coil size, same coil winds. Compressed, the G55 front spring sits 0.5-0.75" lower than the G63 front spring. The rear springs on the G55 and G63 are exactly the same.

The shocks do probably play the largest role overall on how hard the G55 rides though.

I'm planning on removing my G63 springs but don't think I'll be able to do it in the near future to get to you in a timely manner.

its definitely a combo of both, but the shorter G55 springs are stiffer than G63. Ive already changed out all shocks to G550 and thats helped somewhat. Changing springs would be the best route though.

Built 2008 G55 & one big 80 Series LandCruiser !
Springs will be a good start - moreso on the 55's ( especially the visual - the rake is real...) and Koni's are a great value / perf. play in my opinion and make the bigger ride tranformation ( along with a wider tire and stance if possible).... having had Fox's on my g63, and multiple landcruisers with Icons, AVD and Kings.... etc

I have a basically new set of G63 springs in storage. I can look for them when I get back from vacation.
