REB000590 front springs wanted (pair)

[NOCTURNAL]

as above in a bit of a spot as there only seems to be 'one' available in the system..

If anyone knows of someone with stock plmk.. Long shot I know, but thought I'd pop it in here anyway..

Cheers, Nick

NIck - might be worth giving Scooter a call in the morning - amazing what he magics up when needed

[NOCTURNAL]

unfortunately I tried Scooter last week :( said none for sale...

does anyone have an eibach contact from when trying to source the rear springs?

[greeners]

Contact XPart, MGRpartfinder is showing them with stock......

[NOCTURNAL]

cheers.... just hope the SAP one is actually there and not an order part..

[NOCTURNAL]

No luck... theres one at desford, but the dealer one the system just hasn't been updated :(


went a couple of weeks ago...


Helpfull chap apart from the obvious of not having one LOL...


so.... do I get one spring fitted and wait for a pair to be made or is one new spring and shock likely to upset the balance even worse than the current broken spring with old shock.....

[greeners]

Do what Black Betty did, and get a pair made..... definitely wouldn't fit a single new spring.

The garage are already on that but looking at lead time...

and Nor would I normally but a spring an inch shorter isn't ideal either...

Thanks David much appreciated.... Just doing that now :)

[greeners]

or Try GT racing in Exeter who've got loads of V8 bits...

[greeners]

Here you go....

They are for the 75 which has different shocks, but the same springs as the ZT (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ROVER-75-MGZT-MUSTANG-ENGINE-FRONT-SUSPENTION-LEGS-/370304828968?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5637e34628#ht_711wt_932)

[NOCTURNAL]

Thanks David BOB are hopefully sending me a pair today....

Much appreciated, TBH I hadn't realised the 75 had the same springs tbh....

bought the top mounts as well while I was there as I can get two for the price of potentially one from the dealer if one ruined one so seemed silly not to..

No luck with Eibach btw, but would be a case of getting 50 made if gong through them, as I believe Scooter noted for the rears...

The Garage have come back to say x-part would probably have some made to replace stock but obviously only in time..... however the dealer on the part finder seemed to think that, "that would be it" once stock had gone ...

[colintf]

it is sad and potentially worrying to see silly simple things like springs and cables having supply issues.

:confused:

[GeoffW]

Best of british Rover had some a while back.

[colintf]

is this them ?

[NOCTURNAL]

[kcv]
