Looking for new 71 - 73 front coil springs

Postby T-FATTY » Sun Nov 04, 2018 9:29 pm

I'm looking for and can't find new stock front coil springs. For the time being I want to do new coil springs/shocks for my stock control arms.
YES I accept paypal donations...

No one has made new coil springs for the first gen in probably decades, unless you have them custom-made. I have the original stock springs out of the Flyin' Turd '73 Vega notchback, if you would be interested.

CS-6490's are still available. they were for deep pocket 4 cyl cars, so they should be good for a V8 with shallow pocket arms. same coil diameter but 1 inch taller free height.
