I just happen to have a set of OE fronts and rears sitting beside me (funny about that!)

Fronts: 338 mm long, 14.4 mm thick, overall 119 mm metal diameter, 8 turns with 15 mm overlap.

Rears: 265 mm long, variable metal dia from 8.3 mm to 14.4 mm, overall diameter max 164 mm (belly) minimum diameter internal (ends, to fit around bumpstops) 48 mm, 8 turns no overlap.

Can you handle it all in metric???



in inches stock front springs would be....

Fronts: 13.307 inches long, .566 inches thick, overall 4.685 inches metal diameter, 8 turns with .59 overlap.

so if stock is nearly 13.5 inches....how tall will the new ones need to be for the 4 inch lift?...about 15-16 inches?


they are about 2" taller and use a thicker wire. but i think the newest sets will be a little more than 2" taller or use an even thicker wire, not sure i gotta talk to the coil manufacturer today, they said they've fixed the sagging issue, but they didn't tell me how yet.
