Club 80-90 Forums

Hi, I'm currently rebuilding my suspension and brakes, on stripping it down I've found the lower spring seats on both sides of the van have worn through, these are the plasticy discs that sit on top of the trailing arm, under the spring. They don't seem to be available from any of the usual places and I wondered if anybody new of an alternarive that I could use instead.

Thanks
Craig

Have you placed a wanted ad?

Hi Cruz,
Yes I put a wanted ad on first before I put it here on the technical forum.

may be able to get them from classic parts in germany
part number is 251 511 139

i may have some 2nd hand ones

Thanks Aidan, I had the part number as I'd tried VW and VW heritage earlier but have never tried the German site, will take a look at that,
Cheers

Hi Faggie, If you do have some second hand ones please let me know, that'd be great.
thanks

I'll probably be putting in an order to classic on Monday I'll try ordering some in anyway, they were a bit expensive for bits of plastic, but they help reduce the wear to the pigtails and thus extend the life of the springs

I really appreciate that
Thanks
