ok guys i need some info please, an estelle rallycar that i built a bit back has been invited to goodwood festival but the owner wants some taller stiffer springs as it is set in tarmac trim now and its going to be rough, can anyone tell me the length and diameter of the std 130 front and back springs so he can get some made to fit.. i would usually just go and measure some of my stock but i am still on cruches so cant get there.. or does anyone have an old set of forest springs kicking about. (i used coilovers on mine so no good for him)

cheers guys

I have a pair in my garage...I will look tomorrow or Monday for you.

Ok....they are 11.5cm (give or take a mm) across and 43 cm tall at the tallest point.

cheers mate is that the front or the rear ones? guessing front at 43cms?

Rears........I dont have a pair of fronts to hand.

tidy thanks . i think i am escaping today for a bit so i can maybe go and measure up a front one.. cheers for that

hi there fellow skoda fan i have some info here from a czech sight says the fronts from '82 to '84

Front: 102mm internal diameter and height 304mm spring thickness is 12,5mm these were the type m suspension so all are relatively the same for later models.

Backs: 113,5mm internal diameter and height is 436mm spring thickness is 12,5mm this is '84 and beyond.

Hope this helps.

could you do me a favour and see how long the body of the shock is im building a 130rs so need info as I will be using later shocks.

Cheers Phil
