The last Spring, Shock, and Ride Quality post

Contact southwest speed about your spring needs. 29 bucks a spring, any rate a Festiva owner would need. I have about a dozen different sets of these springs for my cars, they work well . Southwest speed also sells coilover sleeves that fit nicely on rear Festiva kyb shocks and they allow a 1 7/8" I.D. spring to be used which is lighter and allows more room for bigger tires than the 2.5" I.d. eBay coilovers ( Ground control copies).

For less than the price of lowering springs you can just get a set of eBay sleeves and summit springs, and then you get height adjustable and whatever spring rate you want.

...but next on my list is some stock height stiffer springs for more suspension travel

lovells springs should still be around in oz, they do stock springs 15-25% stiffer if you get stuck for brands

Doesnt look like that Ebay company will ship to the USA. Do you know of anyone lse selling them that will ship to the USA?

could be worth a question i dont reckon theyd mind

if you get stuck i could pick some up and send em for you, either ebay or ill drop into parts store. i get trade there but might not be cheaper than ebay is all

King springs are still sold for the aspire. They come in standard height stiffer/ 1.5" drop "low"/ and 2.5 drop "super low". Sure they are from Australia. but they are the next set I am going to order when I can save some cash. Last aspire had fms springs and I loved them but next on my list is some stock height stiffer springs for more suspension travel.

If you look around they also still have listings for the lowered king springs. Direct fit.

Talked to the ground control guys. They have the springs that we need! I just need to know the rear, not installed spring height, I have front.

Anyone able to post that?

Why would you want different height front & rear? I personally dont have a problem with resurecting a "Oldy but Goodie" :thumbs_up:

ressurecting an almost 19 month old thread are ya???

Heck yes! I would think there would be more intrest as neither festy nor aspire springs can be bought through normal routes. A suitable spring to work with all of the mods we do is needed!

I went to the parts store and asked about replacing my aspire front springs (snapped front left spring). They told me there isn't anything available. I'm building a sno rally festiva so I'm looking for a suggestion on maybe a longer spring for a stock aspire strut for more travel.

Thanks for the suggestions! Great thread! :help:

My apologies, I just realized I resurrected this thread. PM me if you want to answer my question.

the picture doesn't match the description. Desc says bolts. Pic says may not be accurate. They're bolts.

[bakerga1969]

they are adjustable but are ingalls

[bakerga1969]

there not bolts did you look at them.
