Re: [TR] Subject: TR3 Coil Spring Length?

["Wbeech" <wbeech@flash.net>]

I did look at that, and that's why I started to wonder what I had.  The
manual calls for 9.75(std.) or 9.19(comp) yet these measure 10.75".  

As Randall said, they aren't that hard to replace, so I guess I will put
them back from whence they came, spacers and all, and see how she takes the
bumps & turns.

Thanks,
Bill

Bill, just look in the Factory TR3B parts book LOL The Factory TR2/3
"workshop manual" (Service Instruction Manual), section
H: Road Springs and Shock Absorbers, page 1, has all the info and an
illustration of the standard and factory competition springs.  Do pay
attention to spacers, if fitted.

Measured my 3B front coil springs and they are  10.75" long, relaxed.  The
Moss catalog says they should be 9.75" or  10.25"(TR4) in length.  Any I
running any risk with this longer spring  or should I just expect a little
stiffer front  suspension?

Thanks,
Bill
