[urq] Looking for Eibach springs for UrQ

[dgraber460 at aol.com]

I have a set of H&R springs hanging in the basement that I took off my 83 as it was indeed a bit harsh. I replaced them with Eibachs and like the ride better, but also noticed that when I was doing the swap the car had solid control arm bushings. I replaced those at the same time, so I can not unequivocally say the ride was totally due to the springs. The H&R's also let the car ride lower than the Eibachs.

Hello all,

So I've heard the phrase - rarer than hen's teeth - many a time when
looking for parts for these cars, but alas... here I am.

My dad, brother and I are in the midst of restoring (literally - bare
shell) our '83 UrQ and would like to lower it.  While we had the OEM
springs blasted and powdercoated, we really would like a more performance
oriented spring.

That being said, word on the street is that the H&R springs available from
tirerack cause a rather harsh ride... so I'm now looking for those hen's
teeth!

MORAL: Anyone have or know of anyone selling a complete set of Eibach
springs for an UrQ?  Any help is MUCH appreciated!

Getting the car back from the blaster/powdercoater in the next few weeks
(hopefully) and want to make it a roller again and would love to only
assemble the uprights ONCE.  I purchased new bilstiens for all 4 corners,
so we just need the springs.

Thanks all!

-Justin
