New Springs

New springs....

[Martin]

Thats way out fella ....just got in from lowering mine. 270mm to arch.

[Martin]

Is any lower on the new springs? Hard to tell...

[Zollo]

Yeah, thanks for that mate, looks very nice!

It doesn't look that different in the photo, but it definately is a bit lower. 10mm lower in fact. Plus I've got 185 55s which fill the arches more than the 195 50s.

I just want it standard, surely that's not too much to ask?! :(

do they have two white dots of paint on ?

Also check the struts and bumpstops to ensure they are right.

270mm sounds right...winston knows the exact dimensions of mine.

P.S my rear is lowered one spline (30mm)

[richy]

them new springs never been right lol, mine has new springs and theres about a 15mm gap at most from tyre to arch!

[Zollo]

They don't have the paint dots, because they were custom ones that Mark got made up for me.

It's not 270mm, it's 335mm mate. Before I changed the front springs it was 300mm. That was a bit low admitedly, because the springs were snapped, but still, a 35mm raise from new springs?

pm winston mate - he will tell u what mine are.

[Zollo]

According to a previous post I've found, yours is 300mm from arch to centre of wheel at the front. :D

try some of the 172 boys on "the other site", i heard a rumor from j3ned that 172 front springs are identical to willy ones (same part number too)

loads of 2nd hand sets of springs knocking about
