Title: What color was a '90 shock spring?
Post by: reknelb on January 16, 2005, 08:42:46 AM

Mines black. I dont think its been repainted. There are a couple spots that have worn through to the bare steel and I dont see any other colors in it. Just wondering if it could possibly be a stiffer spring rate if its not stock. There aren't any markings of any kind on it.

Thats what I was thinking too. Wonder if there is anyway to figure out the spring rate on this black spring I have on it.

The spring on my 90 is blue, if that's any help to you :?
