Custom rear springs

Post by Nez »

I am buying a set of Protech dampers which come with a choice of front springs.
Protech do not supply rear springs in the set so I am wondering where is best to buy "tailored" rear springs.
Looking for 800lb , length TBC.
Can anyone advise where they have bought anything similar.
Thanks

Malcolm,
No you didn't mail me. I've not discussed with anyone prior to this.
Will have a look.
Thanks

Hadn't read the blurb, Mikey. Quite amusing. :lol:

Ooof, pricey.
I made an enquiry yesterday but have not heard back yet.

I think I ran 900lb on my black Imp but speaking with GWR he has suggested 800lb and 6-7" long with packers to suit.
So don't really think your 700lb x 7 1/2" are suitable , Malcolm.
Thanks for the pointer though.
