[Spridgets] Quarter elliptic springs

[Mark Haynes]

Phil- I put (I think)4 leaf race springs from one of the usual suspects on the
BE with a 5/8" spacer underneath to enable use of the original U bolts and
attachment hardware. The pacers are a bit of a one off, being milled from
6Al-4V Titanium with a large slot for the spring clamp pin and the correct
holes for the through bolts. I placed the spacer under the springs, and the BE
is rock solid and level. I can check tonight on how many leaves there are if
need be.

Looks like I may be shopping for rear springs for a Bugeye. I know in the
past
some new springs appeared over sprung making the car appear to sit high. I
don't know where they were purchased.  I see Moss' springs are listed as
Rally
type 10 leaves I think.

Any suggestions where to buy new?
