david nelson Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Has anyone got a pair of rear springs for the standard bilstein dampers. Am looking for either 140 or 150 lbs. thanks David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I have a set of spring/damper units. Should be able to remove the springs ok. Where are you based ? Will see if they have any ratings on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan c Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 David I have a set of standard springs and dampers that were taken of my VX a few months back. They were correct length for mounting through centre of the De Dion tube. Are these are of any use to you? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Fowler Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Faulkner Springs only £22 each. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david nelson Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Stationary M25 Traveller YHM Alan: The damper is attached below the tube. thanks Lee: Its only for messing around in class 3 sprints next year and do not want to spend any real money on springs. I also am unsure if the dampers are any good as they are 2nd hand. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Richard Price Posted November 4, 2011 Area Representative Share Posted November 4, 2011 David, If it's any help, we're using the standard progressive springs. They're really quite soft, being rated at 110, then 130, then 200lbs/in (but you can ignore the 200 part, because you only ever go near that part when in extreme bump). My own feeling is that 150 is a little too stiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
