No, actually. I believe it was an option but not fitted..

You'll be disappointed though as I have Volans on there at the moment..

Des. . .

Hi,
I am trying to work out which of the leaf spring variants (Heavy or normal duty) is fitted to my 960 estate (1995 'M' believed multilink II?). Everyone on the forums (both this post and others) say "measure the spring thickness at the mid point".

This is all well and good, but can anyone tell me what the actual dimension is? Preferably in mm?

Its probably blindingly obvious if they are side by side, but I only have one and its secured rather strongly to the underside of the car.....

I'm sure that someone out there knows! Have tried searching the posts but actual dimension data seems hard to come by. Anyone prepared to dive under the back with the calipers?

Cheers, Tony.

You dont have to measure it. Just dive under the car and in the midlle of it there is a part number.

- leaf spring(LD) - p no. 6819300 - weak one for nivomats.

- leaf spring(HD) - p no. 9140471 - heavy duty for standard shocks(actually very rare in estates).
