156 JTDM150 Rear Springs

[Paul S4]

I have a nice 2005 Alfa 156 remapped JTDM150 that I want to preserve....

I have already had a lot of work done on it to maintain it to the standard that I want.

However, a couple of years ago, my local garage sourced some Monro rear springs that they were assured were correct for my Veloce. When all the work was done ( it included most of the rear suspension, dampers etc) the car sat too high at the back. At first I thought they would 'settle' with the miles, but this has never happened. To most people that would be OK....but I know that they are not correct and want to get it sitting at the right height.



(This was taken last year en route to Monaco.)

So my question is....has anyone got a decent set of OEM 156 Veloce rear springs that they do not need !

This would be the final piece of my 'restoration' as most of the rest of the running gear has been either refurbished or renewed.



As can be seen the rear sits too high as compared to the front.

Looks very wrong....!

I think Eibach -30s are the same as Veloce.

I have only had one 156 but on my 155s changing to Eibachs has been a revelation; the Eibachs do settle down a bit over time and are much better than standard springs.

quite cheap here.
