Title: Estate front springs recomendation
Post by: steve6367 on 13 February 2017, 10:44:33
Morning all - the front springs seem to be NLS at VX now so wondered if anyone has purchased any recently and can recommend?

I note ATP do them - but a lot of options, tempted by these at the price, but guess they may not be great!

Nick W seems content with his ATP springs, perhaps he can point you in the direction of the ones he fitted :y

Those are what I bought. They fitted easily, and brought the front of my car up by 30mm compared to the saggy originals. The car rides properly too.


I also replaced my tired S/L rear springs with stock estate ones from ATP, which has improved the rear suspension and the compressor rarely runs in normal use.


When you can get all four springs for the price I was quoted for one rear it's worth taking the chance.


I would recommend some robust spring compressors if you're going to do the job yourself.

ATP seem to do lots of decent parts now - got the OOF recommended wishbone kit ready to go on Zeke...

I bought a heater matrix too; for 16Euros it's not worth trying to flush mine again.
