Sup ya'll. So I have my RG at 80K miles finally with the original Comp even. Been getting a little shutdown slap and rough bottoming out in the driveline when down shifting.
Took the Comp out and it almost looks new. Crazy. Anyway, anyone know that the spring pack height should be when stacked up? Got 1.27 inch stacked - that's what she said.
The first little spring looks flatter than it prob should be. I've read it's a wear item and some folks are putting in a Fueling improved spring that is available.
Might go that route if the spring pack is indeed squashed.
Been all over the maintenance manual and have not located a proper measurement... any help would be appreciated.
Pic of the OEM comp below. Just some light scratching. Impressive considering all the talk about aftermarket ramp issues etc.
Thats seriously impressive. I was getting those noises at 25k on my 18 RKS. I looked at the Feuling spring but I ended up just getting the full set from evolution industries. Made a definite improvement.
As stated, I'd change the springs and cup the smallest with the original if it works with the new spring set if using OEM. Don't know about fit on the aftermarket stuff.
