Found this ranger at the junkyard. Looks like a splash but hard to say for sure. This is the door sticker:



Does anyone know if these are the splash coils springs. The code says (E B) I googled a bunch of stuff but could find anything. Ok. Thanks...

The link I found was on ranger forums or rps I think. Basically the spring code for the shorter splash springs is "K K".

Anyway, what I ended up doing was going on rock auto and looking up the replacement springs for a 97 Ranger Splash. The cheapest set are sold by Moog. If you look in the specs for those springs the ride height for the splash springs is 10.5 compared to 11.5 for the standard 97' Ranger. I think the load capacity is larger too. Anyhow, the part number is Moog CC842, and I found a new pair on eBay for $73.XX with free shipping. Their were some cheaper sets but they didn't ship to Hawaii. I'll take some before and after pics...
