B4 front springs

[rich_p]

I purchased some springs for the front of my B4, blue and silver. The silver ones are the same length as the kit greens but the blue ones are longer. Is that normal or do I have B3 or 3 blue springs?

I think it is normal - the blue springs i have are also longer than the green springs. something to do with spring rates i think. . . . I stand to be corrected though ::)

I think the reason for it is, the greens, silvers and blacks have been around for years, so were designed for the old short shocks which used to go on the alluminium chassis cars. Now the shocks are longer (since the B2 I think?) and the blue springs are very new and were made to suit the length of the shock on current buggies.

But the strengths are right, just use more preload spacers on the shorter springs.
