Hi folks. First post so hope I've put this in the right forum.
The previous owner of my 2001 Plus 8 installed 180lb front main springs that were 1" lower than stock.
I need to return the springs to standard (120lb?) whilst I still have some fillings left in my teeth but wish to retain the 1" lowered option. Melvyn sells these at about £66 a pair but can anyone advise of alternative suppliers?
Secondly, I've studied the "how to...." on eMog and all looks reasonably straightforward, but how much energy is left in that mainspring when it comes to taking it out? Most of the commercially available spring compressors look a bit chunky bearing in mind the dinky little Mog springs - any recommendations?
Finally - is a 120lb spring the best option? Whilst it's stripped I could put any rating in.......
Many thanks, Bob.
