Spring guidance for a 1990 ZR1; FE1 = FHA? From England, GB - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

CDC · 01-17-2024

Hi. Firstly - i'm in England, Great Britain, just to set the tone. So my parts and shipping cost in general is another level compared to everyone in the USA.

I am desperately seeking a front spring (mine is an FHA) to replace my cracked one. No one on ebay.com will ship to the UK for some reason, so used ones seem sadly out of the picture.

Zip corvette seem to be the only place that has a new one. But they only stock two types.

The "base spring rate FE-1"

Or the "sprint spring rate Z51"
https://www.zip-corvette.com/84-96-f...ring-rate.html

I'm fairly sure neither of these are right to replace my FHA. I have reviewed the great thread on here with the list of spring codes.

Would appreciate your advice/assistance on this and whether the new FE1 option is actually the same as an FHA. Thanks!

Charlie
