Hi
Where's the best place to get springs made ?

Are they very custom? Faulkners have a pretty big catalogue and can source bespoke items too (see "SPECIALS".

Hi,

If you're not in a hurry (about 14-21 day lead time) I can get you springs made at very good prices.

Mk I II III IV or V? Front or rear? What model. How much shorter?

Go on, give us a clue

Haha not 100% sure but mk iv and front and probs just inch to 2 inches shorter

Mk IV front springs lowered by 1" or 2" and uprated to suit (lower springs need to be a heavier rate) are £29.50 each (special LCB price for you). These are made to order and epoxy polyester coated in jet black. Delivery is £8.50.

The only other element I'd need is the motor (V6s run heavier springs).

U2U or mail me if you need more info.

Cheers,

Mike
