Superspec Coilspring Rating

[Guest diyer]

What is the rating for the blue coilsprings on the front of a superspec?

 

And the green springs on the rear of a lightweight?

 

And, what diameter are they off top of your heads? 1.9 or 2.25"

 

cheers

After quite a lot of grief trying to get the replacement spring ratings right on my superspec, I measured mine and the fronts are 380lb per inch

The rears on the superspec are 280 by the way

Don't know what the diameter is but my replacements are 1.9"

Bought some from Damper tech a couple of weeks ago. He wanted to give me softer ones but the ones I got were front 350 and rear 300. He also has the sleeves to reduce the eyes from 12mm to 10mm bolts. I cant tell you what diffence these shocks make as I am still a few months from being on the road.

Hi, I've just been looking at an old RH brochure, for their post code, and found an advert for "Zeemeride Coil Over Dampers" which states the spring ratings as follows

Black ... 130lbs

Red ..... 180lbs

Blue .... 220lbs

Green .. 320lbs

 

Hope this helps
