Spring Inner Diameter?
Does anyone know the inner diameter of the stock Lotus springs on a non-lss car? Is it 1 7/8", 2 1/2", etc?? The shock body is 36mm, correct?
I'm trying to order the correct size sleeve: http://www.a1racing.com/index.asp?Pa...S&Category=253 Thanks!

The body of my base shocks measures 40mm OD. The springs are still mounted so I can't get an accurate reading of the ID, but at a guess they're 2 1/8" near the middle but pigtail down to about 1 7/8" at the seats.

Where are you guys measuring that? I'm using a vernier caliper, measuring directly below the bottom spring seat and still get 40mm. Or is 36mm the piston diameter?
