Will 6R springs fit a 9N3

Post by Tommygee12003 »

Hi

Just a quick question. Do springs from a 6R fit a 9n3?

Probably not but I've seen some for sale and I believe they are 6R springs. Just checking.

Thanks for any info

An easy way to resolve this is to check out the website of some suspension parts suppliers, normally there will be a section for each listed coil spring that details nominal length, assembly diameter, coil material diameter and end types. Then compare for both as well as comparing the part number for both to see if they are the same.

Road springs also tend to get made in "weight ranges" as well as length diameter etc, so there will not be any fits all 9N3 or 6R0 etc spring, but a selection of springs demanding on the engine fitted and other issues including ride height.
