FAQs

What is the main purpose of the KYB RA1060 Suspension Spring?

The KYB RA1060 is designed as a replacement front coil spring to restore the original ride height and support the vehicle's front suspension system for compatible Ford Fiesta models.

Does this product fit all Ford Fiesta models?

No, it is specifically designed for certain Ford Fiesta models. Always verify compatibility with your vehicle's year and model, and check against the OEM number 1022185.

Should I replace my springs in pairs?

Yes, it is highly recommended to replace suspension springs in pairs (both front or both rear) to ensure balanced handling, prevent uneven tire wear, and maintain vehicle stability.

The spring has a thickness of 11.5 mm, an outer diameter of 139 mm, and a length of 381 mm. Its weight is approximately 1.83 kg.

What is the weight of this suspension spring?

What does 'Fitting Position: Front Axle' mean?

Troubleshooting

Vehicle sits unevenly after installation.

Ensure both front springs were installed correctly and are fully seated. If the issue persists, verify that the correct part number was used and consider replacing the opposite side spring if it wasn't done as a pair.

New springs are making noise.

Check that all suspension components are properly tightened and that the springs are correctly seated in their perches. Noise can sometimes indicate improper installation or a related suspension issue.

Ride quality has not improved.

The primary issue might not be the coil spring itself. It is possible that the shock absorbers or struts need replacement, or there may be other worn suspension components affecting the ride.
