Have taken that into account Jim, thanks again. ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Jim Hearne <[email protected]> Sent: 30 March 2017 19:48:44 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Lowering springs for my 2+2.
The non XR2 springs will be softer so they would compress more with the same (near enough) weight of the car. So the difference when fitted to the car would be less than the difference uncompressed.

I was going to change springs anyway, but now have brought this job forward as not looking as I want. I understand that the manual states 'Quantum red springs' for front and Fiesta mk2 1100 springs for rear, however when looking at lowering springs, most seem to be a standardised Fiesta mk2 set up , most covering full range excluding XR2 !!!! Anyone got any experience with lowering springs , any recommendations would be great . Car has std. XR2 engine set-up, thanks. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
