Re: Snapped front coil spring on '96 Aero Posted by striictly sweedish [Email] (#2026) [Profile/Gallery] (more from striictly sweedish) on Sun, 6 Nov 2022 15:22:56 In Reply to: Snapped front coil spring on '96 Aero, Andre 9000, Sat, 29 Oct 2022 16:57:49 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to track down a pair of Aero / 1998 CSE front coils for my 1996 CSE. The part number I found was 4193462 (white-green-white-green-white, free length 413 mm), I may have wasted my time looking for the wrong spring! I found two such springs from separate suppliers but only one delivered so I have one spring and am still looking for its mate 18 months on. I imagine you are looking for a pair. Good luck. It's a jungle out there. I ordered Lesjofors rear springs listed as specifically for the 1998 CSE (same as Aero) and what I got were (p.n. 4277808) for 92-96 Saab 9000. I installed them anyways and they lowered the rear end and improved handling. My next move - much as I would like to be a purist - will be to order a set of Lesjofors sports springs (20mm lower) and see what their installation on the front does for the car. Did I say good luck?
