Rally springs - sort of

Post by MarinaCoupe » Sat Jun 16, 2007 6:21 pm

There are a set of two leaf rear springs on Ebay at the moment. I have been in touch with the seller and the part number he gave me relates to Austin Marina 1800 (Canada only). They are the same poundage as UK 1.8 saloons and coupes at 113lbs, but will I think sit a little higher, just what you need for a 1.3 gravel car. Not for me but maybe - Crashbang?

Not stronger just more ground clearance.

Seen the pic before you were very lucky.
