COMPETITION
FRONT SPRING SET #540-03-2
Competition
Springs on the Left, Stock Spring on the Right.
These are the original style Datsun Competition springs, not
the taller, stiffer replacements Nissan had remanufactured
in the 90s that have received negative reviews.
Part
numbers ending in "-2" are for quantity two of the items.
Nissan's description in the old Competition catalog says the
"Comp" spring lowers the front about 1 3/4" over what the
standard spring was designed to do, and has an increased
spring rate to help prevent bottoming out. You'll also need
to trim your rubber bump stops down about 1/3. We can send
or post a drawing of how you should modify them if you
haven't picked that up from the old Bob Sharp Comp book. A
very sharp "exacto" knife can do it, or a hacksaw. You may
find that putting the bump stop in the freezer overnight may
make it easier to cut.
