I have a set of FRPP struts, shocks, and two sets of springs. I understand one set to be a 1" drop and the others are 1.5" (I think)- part #'s on the 1" set are: 2006 FMSR-H (rear) 2006 FMSF-H (front) and on the 1.5" set:M-5300-KR and 266319 (rear) M-5300-KF and 270005 (front) If you can verify, please do!
Questions:
1. Why are the unloaded 1.5" rears longer than the 1" ones? (see pic 2)
2. Which way do the rears go- tightly wound coils up or down?
3. Does the front strut go togther as shown in pic 3? Maybe it will be clear when removing factory stuff.
4. I'm thinking about lowering the front 1", rear 1.5". Any reason not to do this? Seems it would level the car...
