FAQs

Why must front coil springs be replaced in axle pairs?

Replacing springs in axle pairs ensures balanced suspension and consistent vehicle handling, particularly important for braking and cornering stability. Mismatched springs on the same axle can lead to unpredictable vehicle behavior and safety hazards.

What does 'shot peening' do for the spring?

Shot peening is a process where the spring is bombarded with small steel balls. This introduces a beneficial residual stress into the metal, significantly improving its resistance to fatigue and preventing premature breakage under load.

How do the corrosion protection methods work?

ROC springs use a two-stage protection: first, a Zinc Phosphate coating provides galvanic (sacrificial) protection. Second, an electrostatically applied epoxy powder resin coating offers a robust physical barrier against corrosion.

What is the warranty on ROC springs?

Information regarding the specific warranty period for ROC springs is not detailed in the provided product data. Please refer to the seller's terms and conditions or contact them directly for warranty details.

Can I install this spring myself?

While possible, installing suspension springs involves significant force and potential risk. It is strongly recommended that installation be performed by a competent person using specialized tools and following a recognized repair manual.

How do I ensure this spring fits my car?

Use the provided make/model compatibility tools, cross-reference part numbers with your vehicle's specifications, and consult the cross-reference lists. If still unsure, contact the seller with your vehicle's details before purchasing.

What standards are these springs manufactured to?

All ROC springs are manufactured in accordance with ISO9001 & ISO14001 quality and environmental standards, and within an IATF16949 compliant environment, ensuring high manufacturing quality.

Troubleshooting

Vehicle sits unevenly after spring replacement.

This often indicates springs were not replaced in axle pairs. Re-install springs in pairs on the same axle and ensure correct fitment.

New spring makes noise.

Ensure the spring is correctly seated at both ends and that no adjacent components are making contact. Check for loose mounting hardware.

Suspension feels too soft or too stiff.

Verify that the correct spring part number for your vehicle's make and model was used. Confirm proper installation and seating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior fatigue strength due to shot peening.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance from dual protective coatings.
  • High-quality manufacturing adhering to international standards.
  • Ensures long service life and reliable performance.
  • Traceability for quality assurance.

Cons

  • Must be replaced in axle pairs for safety.
  • Requires professional installation due to inherent risks.
  • Compatibility must be verified before purchase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Always verify fitment using the make/model tool or by contacting customer support with your vehicle's specific details. Ensure the spring size and end shapes match the original equipment before installation. Cross-reference part numbers with those listed for your vehicle.

Setup:

  1. Safety First: Suspension springs store significant energy. Always use appropriate spring compressors and follow instructions from a recognized repair manual. Installation should only be performed by a competent person.
  2. Axle Pairs: Crucially, replace springs in axle pairs. Fitting different springs to the same axle can cause imbalance, affecting vehicle handling and braking.
  3. Orientation: Fit the new spring with the same orientation as the original equipment spring.
  4. Component Check: Inspect spring pans, bushings, and link-arms for damage and replace if necessary.
  5. Final Check: After installation, ensure springs are correctly seated and not loose. Check wheel alignment.

Care: ROC springs are treated for corrosion resistance. Routine visual inspection for damage or excessive wear is recommended during other vehicle maintenance. Clean any road debris that may accumulate around the spring.
