neuspeed race springs

[atop]

hey guys my springs just came in and i think something is wrong.
i checked the part number for the springs, its supposed to be 55.02.49 for my 08 a4 2.0t Quattro. But the problem is the front ones are 55.02.44.
does someone know if it right or wrong, pls respond asap.

also will i be needing a spring compressor when installing the springs.
ima do it myself. have done it before on my civic hatchback, but didnt need at that time.

bump. ASAP

Strangely it appears they are using the same part# for the front springs for the B5 A4 quattro, the B6 A4 fwd and quattro, and the B7 FWD and quattro.

cheers! mike

call up your vendor or call up neuspeed and double check it with them before you do anything else.

Hey Man, let me know what you get into with those springs, I have the same car and considering the same thing.... luck with the sizing, btw what did you pay?

The part number on the springs aren't going to tell you if you got the correct springs - look at the number on the box.

[john@fifteen52]

The part number on the spring will not necessarily match the kit part number. You can always check with Neuspeed directly for individual spring part numbers, I'm sure they won't mind looking it up for you.

I have the Neuspeed Race springs on my 06. A spring compressor is needed for installation. I only had to use it to remove the rear springs though. You can get away without a spring compressor at all if you are crafty.

^ its so stock. but that car looks realllllly pure, nice and clean. i love it!

[g_svan]

If you lower the rear frame, springs will fall out by them selfs --> then it's really easy!

Good luck!!

@john1552: Nice ride height! Level :)

Youll need the compressor for the fronts. Its a pain in the ass! Good luck! Took me six hours to install em.

yeah my neuspeed race springs came with two different part numbers... not sreu waht they were but i remember them beng different... just make sure the box is right and ur good

[john@fifteen52]

Thanks for the compliments! Here's another shot after a few weeks, not much settling. But I am in desparate need of wheel spacers and clearing the headlights.

How is the ride quality?? Is it very stiff??

[john@fifteen52]

It is stiff. The wifey likes it (she drives it mostly) and that's all that counts :) But we're used to stiff suspension since just about all of our cars over the past 10 years have had some type of aftermarket suspension (simple springs to full out coilovers/sways/braces/etc.), and we've had a lot of cars. The average person would never put up with the ride of the Race springs.

Car looks good. Nice setup.

I bought used suspension from a member here. He has b6 fwd, but apparently a lot of fwd guys use awd springs due to the weight ratio.
My NS # are 55.02.44F and 55.02.49R
