Hi Shane,
All springs and Aluminum spacers came from Moss Motors LA, CA.
The comp. springs are shorter and would make the car ride about
1" lower. To bring the ride height up to stock I used spacers.
The spacers In the front are also aluminum but were made for
a TR4/TR5 and as such are a little narrower (OD) than the spring
used for the TR6. To "make them useable" I just hacksawed a line
through them (so they could spread outward) and fit them over the
end of the spring. I then installed them using new rubber insulators
as normal.

P.S. you can see the car on my home page if you'd like.
