Hi,

I heard recently of a company that specialises in the conversion of a series suspension system from leaf springs to coil springs.

Don't worry, i'm not thinking about having this done, but I am planning to do a University research project into the possibliy of suspension conversions.

Anyway, my question is: Does anyone know if this company exists(or was I just dreaming), and if it does exist, where are they based and do they have any contact details and/or a website??

Thanks

basicaly a replacement galvanised chassis,thats coilsprung,tho i seem to recall in the mists of time that they used to do the bits to change a leafer to a coiler ,but i could be wrong on that .

there is a lad called green landy or summat like that on ebay, smashin young fella and he is developing a coilspring that marries up with a leaf spring, a right ingenious idea, have a word with him.. ask ormus if he can remember his name
