Would the shocks fit ok with 120 springs?

rakester 22-02-11 10:56 PM

Hmm not 100% sure dude, someone will chime in.

The tiniest bit of the spring on the end had cracked off, i mean like 2cm of spring. Felt fine to drive, was picked up on my MOT so changed it.

Either way a cheap set of shocks for someone :)

They are both from a mk2 facelift btw, removed from a car that had only done 30K, as I changed the spring and not the complete shock :)

So its just the spring that is broken? The shocks are still fine?
I'll have first dibs if I can get confirmation they are ok for a 120....

Shocks 100% low mileage units, I bought them as as pair and just took the spring off to change over.

I know they will deffo fit a 120 but just not sure about the putting 120 springs on 180 shocks. I'd take a guess and say yes they will fit fine as the only difference between the 120 setup is that springs are weighted differently for the lighter engine.

I think all rear shocks on ZS models are the same also

Ok, hopefully someone in the know will point me in the right direction!

Sure it's been asked before and answer was that your car wouldn't sit as low at the front as the 180 as it has the weight of the V6 to keep it down.

But he won't be using 180 springs ;) Unless the actual shocks have something to do with it as well?
