Hi all

One of my front springs has gone a bit saggy. Does anyone know the spec for the standard front springs. It was red in colour before it went all rusty if that helps! Many thanks

Could be anywhere from 150lb/in to 400+ with 250 the most likely but firstly it needs to be the same as the other front and secondly they need to balance the rear springs rates. You'll have to measure the rear rates and then buy a pair of fronts to match. Good news is that springs are cheap.

thanks for the reply. I'm going to buy a pair so am just looking for the OE spec. Should have said it's a '94 4 litre with standard shocks. Might just ring up rally design and see what they say...

Anyone else have an idea (or a good set of springs to sell?)
