I just recieved my springs from www.canuckmotorsports.com. just wondering which i s the front and which is the rear lol i know stupid question im thinking the fatter ones for the back and the ones that coil in tighter are the front thanx guys

[Coupe]

No, its the other way around.
Here is a good idea genious, go outside and look at your stock springs.
Hope your not installing those yourself lol

[King Asoka]

yeah if you cant figure that out you need to get someone to install it for you.

fewer coils = stiffer spring... stiffer spring goes where the most wieght is... most wieght is in the front... at's not that hard to do... good luck with it...

thanx boys and no i cant install them..no spring compressor. meh, what a good price for getting them changed out $50 CAD per wheel? i think i got a guy lined up he said $150 for all. thanks again guys best site EVAR!

[SweetNLow]

$150 to install isnt bad.

i dont know how much drop the springs u got will give u..... but if they are comparable to intrax u dont need a spring compressor to install them. but if uve never attempted this type of work befor i dont recommend doing it anyways

^ I needed a compressor for the rears, but not for the fronts. (and I only paid $60 and lunch for my install....had a friend help out...)

[SweetNLow]

your not a big burlie man like myself........... i dont need no stinkin compressor

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

true that I'm not big and burly, but I'm still no girly man. lol

I just didn't have enough hands to compress the spring and tighten the bolt on top at the same time. (friend did driver side, I did passenger)

Spring compressors are cheap. Princess Auto has them for $39.99 CAD for the ones in a case. They had a cheaper set for around 20. Make sure to get an alignment after you install them.

[SweetNLow]

u can rent spring compressors at most auto parts stores
