HYPERPRO SUSPENSION

[custard]

Hi All

Does anyone know what the part numbers should be for the Hyperpro front and rear springs (non ESA and 30mm lower) and should the part of the spring that is tighter together be at the top of the shock.

Thanks

Rich

No idea on part numbers, but as per:
http://www.hyperpro.com/upload/pdfbestanden/Manual ENG part 2.pdf
convention usually has the tighter coils to the top, but it doesn't really matter. Either way the progressive part of the spring will still compress first, then the stiffer part...

Try Calsport in Brum

I have non lowered Hyperpro spings on my GSA and they are superb I think the tighter bit is at the bottom

tighter bit should be at the top so that less metal is acting as unsprung weight

PS all springs need to be painted yellow to perform better - its been scientifically proven

I think you will find that the latest research now finds that purple springs work better

That research has been proved to be too narrow in its scope and is all but completely discredited.

Kaister is correct. Yellow (and preferably Swedish) is now widely accepted as the only true measure.
