Re: leaf spring problems

I have been lusting after the competition 1/4 rear springs listed in the
Mini Mania catalogue: fewer leafs, less weight, same spring rate and 20%
softer. Sounds too good to be true. Anyone tried them?

Hi Daniel,
I have a good used set, but haven't seen them in years.  Will have to check
how many leafs.  I remember they were out of a low mileage 60 car.  DON'T
buy
the reproductions!!!  There Crap!
