Correct, those are the 10" springs. See my post above, but in short I'm replacing them with the 500 lbs springs, so I'll be dropping the control arm to do that anyway.

Boy, am I learning a lot about working on suspensions! Good thing as our Volvo S60 is also in need of a full refresh. Did the (super easy) rear shocks on that already, but I'm *not* looking forward to the fronts. Looks like they're a PITA to get out of and into the knuckle.
