scottay Member 366 Member For: 15y 23d Posted 17/01/11 11:08 PM Share Posted 17/01/11 11:08 PM I bought some brand new f6 rspec shocks off ebay and I am unsure if the require the longer or shorter springs (this is only for the fronts yes ? Rear is same as ba?)Pat has explained to me I need to measure from the bottom mounting hole of the shock up to the spring seat.When I do this I get a result of around 265mm ? Maybe im measuring from the wrong spot to the wrong spot ? I really dont wanna order the wrong springs and have to send them back lolThanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72721-how-to-tell-if-its-the-longer-or-shorter-spring/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have measured for you.
