Title: HR springs
Post by: NES304 on September 09, 2008, 02:00:39 PM
What is the standard height of a HR spring? I can't work out if I have lowered ones or not.

Might be a no brainer question but do the springs go in with the flat part of the spring to the top or bottom?

Flat to top AFAIK, there should be a recess in the lower wishbone for the other end of the spring.

Cheers Stinky,

I tried that with the HR springs (FC Cross member) and it seams the overall diameter of the spring is slightly larger and will not slide up inside properley (I was told they'd fit). Looks like my mate with a HR just scored a pair of springs.
