Going from old-wornout-came-on-the-car KYB to free-better-condition KYB. Something always bites me in the ass. One of my top nuts is stripped.
Anyway: I did notice that the springs going on have 11 coils and the ones coming off have 8. I was told the ones going on were 100# springs. The ones coming off have SP100 weltmeister printed on them. So what is the deal with the coil count? |

Imagine unraveling the spring into a straight length.
You could bend a 4 ft piece with your hands. Now try to bend a 6 inch section. wont happen. It's basically a lever wound round. |
