    Stock spring wont fit Ralliart Shock absorber

    I bought ralliart shock absorber from OZVR4 member. I have a problem to fit the oem vr4 front spring onto ralliart front absorber. The ralliart SA a slightly bigger than the stock vr4 SA. It wont fit unless modified. does anybody knows how to fix this?

    You will have to make a larger plate for the oem springs to seat on to unless you can get the original springs that were on the ralliarts
    Ask a simple question, never receive an answer these days

    More brute force...?

    A bigger hammer...?

    More people to hold it whilst you push it in...?

    An angle grinder to make it narrower...?

    OK I give up, I am a Mental Health Nurse...

    How do you get a big spring into a smaller shock absorber...?

    Buy matching springs and shock absorbers...?
