There were a couple guys over on the Pelican Parts forum selling used 2.25" or 2.5" springs, if that helps.

You can buy them new for not much more that $100/pair. Great springs BTW. The spring rate engraved on the spring can be trusted. Some other brands..... not so much.

I'll search agin for new prices, but I have not seen less than $150/pair. still not too much in relevance to other expenses, but given that I just need it short term to test, I hate to pay full price. Let me know if you have source.

Thanks

We really do need a SpringBay.com where we can all just dump our old springs. I've got two sets in my garage and would happily give them away.

Maybe set up a charitable site to collect and distribute springs with proceeds to ...?

The 2.5" ID hypercoils are around $55-60 per spring new, for whatever reason the 2.25" ID are close to $75 each.

I have some 700 and 800 x 2.25" x 8" hypercoils. Used (have some minor wear/rub marks), so $60 + s/h per pair.
