spring is in the air!

Post by dadooo »

Hello pugsters!
My right front spring is broken ,near the top :frown: so time to get down and dirty. now checking local suppliers 1 spring here in Sweden http://www.skruvat.se/Spiralfjader-P88441.aspx would cost about the same as this pair shipped http://www.ebay.com/itm/peugeot-406-coi ... 6016.l4276

Anyone here have experience with this company and their products?

I've never heard of Lesjöfors either, anyone? Maybe they're both junk but it's probably worth waiting for some of our more experienced member's opinions :oops:

Lesjofors springs are made in Sweden If I remember, I've used them a few times, never had a problem.

That company on ebay is just up the road from me.

That's a recommendation for them then :cheesy: I only know the big names and the stuff they sell here, I can't say I've ever seen the name before.

Are the ebay ones any good? Gah, the name certainly doesn't help googling them :frown:

They are well know in Sweden as a quality manufacture!
