2.25 inch rear coil-over springs

2.25 inch rear coil-over springs

2002-09-24 by Don Lattimer

Anyone know where I can get 2.25 inch springs for the rear of my 
1971 Marcos V6??  They are 12" long and I need a 170 pound or 180 
spring.  

I'd prefer NOT to deal with AVO after the last blunder.  Any other 
suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
Don Lattimer

Don,
   Try HAL shocks and springs from "Summit Racing" or direct from HAL
they have a variety of spring rates as well as being adjustable.

Dave,
I've looked at HAL springs and they're 2.5 " ID springs. Too big.
Thanks,

Hi Don,
Springs in the 2 1/4" size (from 100# to 2000# ) in lengths from 4" to 14" and multiple manufacturers can be bought from Demon Tweeks. Springs like the 2 1/4 X 12" and 180# are about 19 to 20 pounds sterling. They also have some great catalogs that have all sorts of things for your car although they seem to specialize in racing type things. I'm not sure if they have an online catalog but you can reach them at 44 1978 664461 or email at sales@.... Their mail address is 75 Ash Road South, Wrexham Industrial Estate, Wrexham, North Wales. UK. LL13 9UG. I have had very good experience with them. Good service, reasonable prices etc.
