Spring dimensions

[chrisj]

Can anyone tell me what the OD of a 1.9" ID spring is?
I've had a poke around and can't find anything giving this information.

The reason I ask is that I'm currently using 2.25" ID springs and dampers, but due to changes being made to the suspension, packaging is becoming an issue, and I was just wondering whether a change to the smaller size of sping / damper set up would provide a useful gain in clearance for me.

Cheers,

Chris.

It would depend on the spring length and rate since it will vary according to the diameter of the wire the spring is wound with.

1.9" + 2 x wire dia, or ask the spring manufacturer.

If were being pedantic... then it’s + Paint x 4
Bottom line is ask the manufacturer/supplier or measure one.
