Hi,

I need to replace the original single leaf springs for my Sportrak. Where in the best place online to buy, are there any points I need to look out for when doing the job?

Any advice greatfully received...

Cheers

Go to Milners in Derbyshire. They don't do the single spring, (no one does!) but a 3+1 leaf set. You could take one leaf out if it's too hard, but it probably won't be.
A complete spring kit, including bushes, shackles and pins is £48.25 per side,(or was in January 2004)

They also do replacement gas shock absorbers, (non-adjustable) at £30.00 each.

Deliver following day if you order before 16:00. Go for it!

Thanks for the advice. I ordered a set from Milners and they arrived yesterday - guess what I'll be doing at the weekend! Smile

I've put the polybushes into the springs - they're tight but a little washing-up liquid made them go in fine (old trick from the bicycle handle bar grip days).

Lurch - I could do with a manual for the torque settings. Ho do I go about buying one from you?
