Rear springs

[stillgrinning]

I need a pair of new/partially used rear springs for my 91 Y reg. Apart from the obvious TVR Power type suppliers does anyone know a relatively cheap source or someone breaking a low milealge model ?

Joolz at trackcar solutions does springs, they are as cheap as chips.

Just changed mine to eibach so I have 2 rears. What poundage are you looking for. If mine are what your looking for you can have them for the shipping costs from Chelmsford.

I have no idea. I am simply looking to change the ones that are on my 01 Tuscan because they have compressed so much because of the weight I am always lugging around. I assume that they are the factory fitted ones.

What should I be looking for ? and why have you changed yours ? Should I be changing to a different sort/ strength ?

They are Nitron 350's and are 2 years old. I changed to 400's in the hope of keeping up with those sagaris's

I am not sure if they are a straight swap on Harvy,s but I,m sure somebody will tell us

I am talking about springs and not shocks, are we talking about the same things ? (muppet language please )

Sorry to sound dim but I had Nitron shocks fitted when my other ones failed. What is the difference between the 350's and the 400's ?

Can I get someone to pick them up to save on the shipping costs ? I think your old ones are going to be better than the one's I already have !

Of course you can, no problem at all. Where will you be coming from?

[stillgrinning]

I have a mate who lives Leigh on Sea way but he is always passing backwards and forwards> I will check with him that he is willing and able to pick them up and we can arrange a convenient time. He will probably only need a post code and a house number (if that's the best thing to put into a satnav) and he can find you. I'll get back to you if he says OK and not p*ss off !

[stillgrinning]

He said he would love to help me out Where abouts are you and then we can work out the best time. He is ErictheAardvark on here so I will get him onto the thread.

I know you sent me an e-mail with your phone number on, because I read it and thought "what a nice man". However, as it had diverted straight into my deleted items folder (don't ask me I just drive the bloody thing), when Outlook crashed for some reason (ditto) I lost it.

Anyway Eric has popped up now (being rude about my beloved, poxridden exPorsche owners) so it is more appropriate that you give him directions.

Thanks for being mucked about, I appreciate it even if you probably don't.
