Hahahaha, I forgot about this post.

I welded both broken springs. Literally pointless - as I mentioned up above this makes the spring like 2 completely different springs, one above the weld and one below the weld, with 2 totally different spring rates.

Not surprisingly, they're CRAZY uncomfortable. My ass and back were cashed for weeks after our 16 hour round trip to Road America.

I still haven't found a replacement in spite of the "there's too many sites to list!" comment lol.

Have you thought about putting an ad up here on The Samba? I'm sure lots of folks would buy them. Me, for instance.



He did:
