Question Racing Beat Springs Question

hello all,

ok, this will be a first for me, but in the next couple of months, i will be replacing the shocks, springs, and possibly bushings. i suspect it will take me at least a month to finish, working on it mostly at night & possibly weekends. i suspect i'll probably be ordering additional parts along the way, too.

anyways, my question is about the FD racing beat springs. which one is for the front and which one for the rear?? i have one pair marked 14024 and another pair marked 14025. maybe this will all become obvious when i start disassembling the car, but i haven't started yet, and was wondering this?

thanks in advance for any info.

I'm not familiar with the numbrs or springs, but 2 of the springs should be larger than the other 2. The larger diameter springs go in the back.

As for both sets of springs, their smaller end goes on teh shock, larger end goes on the cap.

thanks for the reply. i also found the info on the mazdatrix site this afternoon. 14024 are the fronts and 14025 are the rears. thanks for the info on which is the top & bottom of the spring hopefully, that would become apparent whenever i take the old ones off. thanks again.
