Bargain Priced Springs

Postby Mmagus on Wed Oct 20, 2010 3:33 pm

In my recent hunt for coil over springs and spring systems I came across this BARGAIN find. Edelbrock has a spring set that is designed to fit a 1932-38 Heavy Street Rod, however the dimensions are worth noting. 2 ½ I. D., 8” free length, 350lb spring made by Eibach is listed for Part #5263 on this page:
http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_new/mc/shocks/sr_coilsprings.shtml

As you can see there are other weights listed as well. Now for the really good part, when I researched Edelbrock #5263 Coil Springs I found this page:
http://shop.888murrays.com/home.php?cat=758

As you see the price is $87.95, that sounds good as it beats the best price I found elsewhere $30…however as Ron Popiel would say, “But WAIT there’s MORE!” When you click the link to it you will find that this is NOT for two springs, but rather a set of 4, bringing the cost for a set of Eibach springs in at $45 vs. $120 (the other best price I found for a quality spring). Of course you will either have a spare set, or go in with a friend and go half-zies.

Channeling my inner Popiel 8) ...BUT WAIT THERE"S MORE!...If you want to get them locally...they can be found here as well!
