Subject: Re: Need M45 Leaf Spring Specs
Leather gaiters a nice touch, be nice if you can revive them for further use. The V12's springs were made by Berry (I think that was the spelling), so interesting change of supplier.
This might help and it might not, but I got Paddington Springs to also make up another identical but less leaves and shorter pair, for my LG6 special (shortened chassis). Unfortunately Paddington could never set them correctly, and I ended up taking them to Jones Springs in Darlaston. I was a bit taken back when the guy simply asked how much higher I wanted the car to sit...that's all the information he wanted. But...they did the job and they're spot-on. Might help you if no other specs materialise.

I must add that no criticism is inferred for Paddington. The springs they retempered for my V12 and Riley RMB are very good, furthermore they never charged me for the LG6 springs; also Jones Springs were impressed with Paddington's workmanship.
