Spring length

Another newbie. Recently purchased a 1948 F-2 that has a IFS and the rear has been changed to a 9". Is there a differance in rear spring length between a F-1 and the F-2?

Hello and Welcoe to FTE!

Here are the Bonus Built Spring Specifications - length is the same on the springs. Number of leaves makes the difference Note: Panels have one less leaf on the rears than the regular F1s:

Thanks for the info. I am still in the early stages of researching for my F-2 upgrades and am sure I will have many more questions.
