WTB: 26 27 Front spring

Post by 70boss2wv » Fri Oct 28, 2022 11:12 am

I can use a front spring for a 26 27 roadster PU.
Rebuildable would be great.

FWIW - considering the fact that the new spring will still be 100 y/o needing new bushings and re-arching, you might be (far) better off purchasing one new. Additionally, suppliers typically have shipping agreements and can offer shipping rates far cheaper than the average Joe has available to them. I'm a firm believer in keeping these things original, but this is one case where the more expensive purchase will be the far cheaper (and likely better) alternative to original in the long run. The difference in fitment and improved ride quality cannot be understated.

Is your spring sagging? They are not that hard to re-arch.
