Thread: EFS front coils

Any short, sharp speed bumps in your area you know the ones that your head hits the roof when you forget about them.

Hmm, they look too small in diameter however it could be as below.

The D2 has a "nesting" lower mount which takes a square end of the spring, so front D2 springs are different to RRC springs which are flat on the bottom ie the last coil is tapered.

When I found this by looking to put RRC rear greens in my D2 , I called Long Range Automotive who said not to worry the flat ones are OK.

However just to be sure I cut a short length of spring off to give an end that would nest into the lower socket.

Yeah spring is smaller in diameter at the lower end???? Even if I could get them to seat they wouldn't stay put the first time I when off road!!
Also did a bit more research and looks like the supplier stuffed up and supplied 50mm raised rather then standard like I asked!!!!
Taking them back on Monday

Mind me asking the damage on efs for the d2 had them in my Nav and liked them alot

Pm'd

From that photo it seems the text on the spring is upside down. Does that mean perhaps the spring is upside down? Just a thought.
