hey, I have a question, I'm going to change my avy spring for a stratos spring that came on an "El JEfe", the thing is I'm not worriend about the inner diameter because I know it fits, but is the outer diameter bigger, or in other words, is the spiral thicker than the one avalanche has? thanks

as far as i know, it wont fit your frame. a 450lbs "el jefe" spring has a 6.4cm OD.

PS: please let me know if you have a 450*2.75 avy or romic spring for sale.

Yeah they're pretty wide. If you go for it, make sure it sits in the spring retainer collars properly... it'll fit but it might be a little loose. I remember when I tried to install an Avy spring on my El Jefe, I had to grind out the first 'coil' in order to fit on the El Jefe collars.
