Apparently the OME springs are built with graphite pads to help them slide. We’ll see!

From memory, I fitted Rancho plus 50mm springs and they had nylon pads but green lane runs and RTV trials would quickly pack the leaves with mud and you were back to square one. My idea to wrap the springs worked well and would last 12-18 months before the need to do it again but that included a lot of mud work.
