Tinmy stores stock a wide range of springs to suit most popular vehicles

The primary function of springs, wether they be Leaf, Coil spring or Torsion Bar, is to absorb the shocks that are created when driving over irregular road surfaces and maintain correct downward pressure on the road for optimum tyre/road surface contact.
The spring rate or stiffness must be matched to the weight of the car and the weight of the other suspension components. The handling of most vehicles is substantially improved by increasing the original spring rate to an optimum rate which maximises tyre adhesion while reducing body roll. All Tinmy stores stock a wide range of springs to suit most popular vehicles. Your Tinmy service technician can advise you on the replacement of original equipment and show you which springs will enhance your suspension system to level beyond manufacturers original standards.

Coil Spring that offers resistance to a compressive force applied axially

A Compression Spring is an open-coil helical spring that offers resistance to a compressive force applied axially. They may be cylindrical, conical, barrel shaped, or concave in form. There are four different end types for a compression spring; the most common being closed and ground. Other end types include closed only, open only, and open and ground.

Tinmy Coil Spring Works Inc. specializes in the design and manufacture of custom compression springs of all sizes and types. We are capable of working with a wide range of wire sizes from 0.008” and up.

Front Coil Spring Symptoms of Wear or Failure Advice

Front Coil Spring
The coil spring supports the weight of the vehicle and maintains the vehicle ride height on the axle where they are mounted. It also allows the suspension system to move up and down to adapt to changing road conditions.

Symptoms of Wear or Failure

Suspension may make a knocking noise when going over bumps
Vehicle ride height is low
Related Repair Advice

Front coil springs should always be replaced as a set
Replacing the coil spring may affect the alignment's settings. We recommend a four-wheel alignment when the coil springs are replaced.
Extreme caution should be used when removing a coil spring compressed by the vehicle's suspension. They are under a great deal of pressure and can cause injury if not removed in the proper manner.
