Spring Free Length

MoreIBNR · #1 11-11-2001, 06:02 PM

Chris - Do you know what the spec is for the free length of the stock springs is? The service manual says to check it when the struts are disassembled, but doesn't give the spec (at least I can't find it).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Are you talking front or rear and what year?

Front and rear and it is a 1992.

Thanks.

I have checked all the manuals and there are no specs for spring length, all they have is ride height, so I called Subaru and they confirmed all that is available is ride hieght. If you need that spec let me know!

Then why do they tell you to check the free length? Service manual Section 4-1 page 16 under c. Inspection.
