hey guys, im about to install my new SPRINT SPRINGS but the thing is, i dont know which way it goes on... Theres like LITTLE SMALL GAPPED COILS for the front two and the rear has none, but im wondering how do u put on the FRONT ONES? DOES THE PART OF THE SPRINGS WITH THE SMALLEST GAPS GO UP INTO THE SHOCK OR FACING DOWN?? heres is a PIC BUT I KNOW ITS A BAD PIC, ITS THE ONLY ONE I GOT, MY FRICKIN CAM. ISNT WORKING!! ARGHH! thanks

The BOTTOM TWO ARE THE FRONT SPRINGS I THINK B/c of the LITTLE COILS IT HAS.. SO HOW DOES THE FRONT ONES GO ON?? thx yall!

 

HELP!! I NEED TO START ON IT NOW, OR ELSE I WONT BE DONE FOR A LONNNNNNNNNNG TIME, HELP GUYS

 

the side with more gaps should go on top. the side that has less gaps (more coils) should be at the bottom. and yes, you're right the two bottom ones are for the front

wrong..the ones with more coils go on the top.. check out neuspeed races or H&R springs. they are they same.

 

soooooooo, which one of you guys am i supposed to listen to?? I NEED MORE PEOPLE TO HELP ME OUT ON THIS...

 

no wait, im sorry. The one with more coils go in the back. the two bottom ones go in the back. But the end with more coils are one the bottom

 

THE BOTTOM TWO GO ON THE BACK!? ARE YOU SERIOUS.. that doesnt sound right

 

yes, that is correct, trust me

 

how sure are u.. lol

 

its cus the front springs have higher spring rates cus of the weight in front, so the springs has to have more gaps in between for the car to bounce up and down.

WRONGGGGGGGGGGG... good lord.. i love honda teach..


anyways the end where the gap is the less ( MORE COILS CLOSER TO EACH OTHER) should go on the top of the shock and the obviously the part where the coils are spread whould go on the bottom..

also the top two are front and the bottom two are rear..

also these seem LIKE CHEAP springs if the dont have a lock in point on the shoch..

that is the bottom part of the each spring, the coils end in such a way that they fit rigth on the shock in place... if they dont..

but if i look closely the front have it.. and u r good

 

thank god for " INTERGRAVER"

 

ok, im sorry. I was wrong again. hahahah. THanks integraver. The more coils should face the top of the shock. That side of the springs should also be flat. Were as the more gap end should have the coil cut off so that it fits and kinda locks to the shock.

 

so BOTTOM ONES ARE FOR THE REAR, THE MORE COILS GOES FACING UP right?&gt;

 

An easy way to check is to take the spring, and compress it with your hands. The one that is harder to compress is for the front, and the one that is easier to compress is for the rears.

those look like sprint or progress springs?
plus if i can remeber correctly are the spring in the front of the car a tad longer

 

I would say search, but theres no good amount of information on these springs. You could just look for there website and find out that way.
