springs

Hi all, I was hoping to get some recommendations for a good shock / spring combo for my V6 GTV project car. I want a slight drop in ride height (around 20mm or so) and better handling but probably don’t need adjustable shocks. I don’t want to lose my fillings over bumps either ideally! I...

Hi guys. I am looking for a new set of coil springs to replace my now, floppy set. If anyone has any leads besides me having to look abroad, it would be great! Thank you kindly Bruce Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mine have vanished, and the pads are rattling. When I changed the pads the new springs didn't seem to fit well, and clearly they didn't. I spent an hour today trying to fit new ones, the same Ferodo FBA526 as the pair that have gone missing. I've checked and they are listed as correct, but...

I have Eibach sport kit springs (-25mm) and TRW sport pack shocks for sale if anyone is interested.. https://www.gumtree.com/p/car-tuning-styling/alfa-gt-147-937-suspension-eibach-trw-25mm-lowering/1353619577 --

Hi everyone. My son had a 147 and was going to fit lowering springs on it. He bought some new Eibach springs, then sold the car and never fitted them. I know he paid nearly £200 for them and I put them on ebay for £100, but no interest. What are they really worth?

Thought I'd make a post about this, as I couldn't find anyone who had reviewed them on a 156 - for a diesel anyway! A while back, I fitted Bilstein B8's to the car along with Eibach -30mm springs. To be fair, going on positive reviews and two trusted brands, I honestly thought that this was a...

Hi all, I own an alfa romeo mito 1.4tb 155. I think the stance of it is kinda way too high out of the factory, I managed to get my hands on some Stance + coilovers for about 70 euros a few months back but I have been hesitant to put them on, as there doesn't seem to be anything online for the...

I have a standard 2000 166. They seem to ride very high. It's an extremely comfortable setup which I like but it does detract from the looks. I was thinking about putting on TI springs or similar. Are they harsher? I don't want to turn it into a sports car, just improve the look a little bit really.

Are 147 front springs known to compress or weaken over time? Its not something I've come across with other brands but my car seems to 'bottom out' very easily. The ride height seems OK but the undertray scrapes when I hit anything other than a small bump. I'm thinking its possibly time to...

Hi all, I'm after some front springs for my 159 Q4 2.4 jtdm estate...they are different to the 'standard' Q4's. The taper out...these are straight. Does anyone have a part number or know of anywhere I can order then from please, part number etc...MOT due real soon and they're both cracked! I've...

Hi, I have just found a great deal on used Eibach Pro kit. Serial numbers: FRONT - F1020001 Weight on front axle: 1060kg REAR - F1020002 Weight no rear axle: 1000kg The specific springs for the 147 have similar weight: Front axle - 1040kg Rear axle...

As the title suggests my car is a 2005 156 sport wagon with a 1.9 diesel engine and in TI format, I would like to source the original sport chassis springs for this as mine are well on their way out, I have tried eper but the versions I have used give multiple choices, this is not narrowing it...

Anyone know of an aftermarket supplier for these? MoT just identified I have a broken one and main dealer want an eye watering £148.19 EACH for them. It's apparently an unique part to the model, part number 50515197...

Hi, I have a guy selling a set of lowering springs. I’ve driven and rode in the car and it was incredibly stable, I thought it was on Eibachs, as they are red. Turns out - they are OMP OVA/2718 - 25mm lowering. Picture included of the rear springs. Has anyone had experience with this brand...

Lots of threads about replacing snapped springs and questions over lowering heights. Please see below a list I compiled for another thread (the info is buried halfway in the thread). Most people end up going for Eibach pro kit as a set of 4 can be had from alfisti.net for £120, same price as 1...

Hello, I've seen online videos of how to change the springs of other car brands, but none of the alfa romeo giulietta. Do you know of any tutorial or video that showed the steps to follow to disassemble the springs? Thank you.

Hello, I have a giulietta 1.6 JTDM 105cv distinctive model. I bought the quadrifoglio giulietta springs and I want to keep the car's standard shock absorbers. Will I have a problem? The reason for changing the springs is to lower the height of the car. Thank you.

Hi out of interest has any one noticed there front springs weakening? I have a 1.6 diesel on stock suspension that has covered 113k miles and I have noticed the under tray just starting to ground over speed bumps, I have no wish to lower the suspension, though I wonder if there is a better...

Hello I'm looking for the original springs of giulietta quadrifoglio but I do not know where to find them. Can you help me? If someone sells them, it interests me. Thank you.

Hi all. I was going to pm Fruity with my question but I think there may well be a few that would find my question interesting. I have a first series 147 TS 2.0, a fine little car. It needs some suspension work - the usual wishbones and draglinks - but also I have sourced both front and rear...
