Troubleshooting

Vehicle height uneven after installation

Ensure springs were installed correctly and in pairs. Verify the correct part number was used for your vehicle. May require professional adjustment.

New spring is noisy

Check that the spring is seated correctly in its perches and that all mounting hardware is tightened to specification. Ensure no other suspension components are loose.

Ride comfort has not improved

Verify that the shock absorbers and struts are also in good condition, as they work in tandem with the springs. Confirm correct spring part number was installed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of KYB coil springs should be performed by a qualified mechanic. It typically involves lifting the vehicle, removing the wheels, and carefully compressing the existing spring to release it from the suspension assembly. The new spring is then installed in reverse order. It is highly recommended to replace coil springs in pairs for consistent performance.

Compatibility: Crucially, verify fitment using the vehicle's specifications and the compatibility list provided by KYB before purchasing. Ensure the part number RA5049 is listed for your specific vehicle's year, make, model, and rear axle configuration. Incorrect fitment can lead to improper function and potential damage.

Care: Coil springs are generally maintenance-free. However, regular visual inspections of the suspension system for any signs of damage, corrosion, or wear are recommended. Ensure surrounding components like bushings and shock absorbers are in good condition.
