Default Rear spring length

Hi,

I´m rebuilding the rear suspension on my -86 Euro. The car feels very soft in the rear. I´m planning to buy Boge/Sachs shock absorbers. Do I also have to change the springs? I can´t find the length of new springs anywhere. Anyone who knows? My springs are 415mm long unloaded. I think that they are original, and have 3 blue paint markings.

Mattias - you should not need to change the springs. If you do they are still available from Porsche as a pair for circa $400.

Thanks Roger. Are the new springs also 415mm?
