    Does anyone know a source, incl. custom manufactured, for (stock rated) Mondial suspension springs that are reasonably priced?

    I think I have the original set off mine still laying around.
    the stock springs are very high in spring rate and preload compression, that is going to make it a bit difficult to get 'off the shelf'. If your going custom go all the way and go with modern custom replacements.

    Thanks for your reply. I want my car to sit as designed. My Mondial QV's springs are getting old (bending sideways touching the A-arms) so the ground clearance is reduced, etc. I am just trying to get a set of new, but original rate springs to replace mine.

    By the way, the Mondial 8 has a different part number from the QV's for the front springs, but:
    The workshop manual (8 & QV is combined into the same book) however doesn't mention different springs for the 2 cars. (same data for both versions)

    Anyone knows if the Mondial 8 and QV front springs are identical despite different part numbers? Their price is quite different...
