Daimler 15 DHC spring measurements

Post by bop »

Looking to have the springs on my 1935 Daimler 15 DHC re-arched. Anyone have the measurements for the front and rear springs when they are off the car? Car is in Canada so shipping is out of the question!

I have been corresponding with Kev from Jones Springs (sales@jones-springs.co.uk). He asked if I had the Daimler part number for the springs. Turns out, that on my car there are copper bands on the springs with the numbers stamped on them.

This is his reply
the details i have are,front spring curve C 3.250" center of eye to main leaf.
rear spring curve E center of eye to main leaf 6.87".
I am very happy with the quick and helpful response I received from him.
I have sent a similar request (twice) for info to Owen Springs and it has been almost a month with no reply!
