I’ve almost certainly got a set here you could have for the cost of freight, it it is a long way from Sydney to Melbourne.

G'day mate,

Didn't receive a PM, so have sent you one. Mebbe respond to that one and see if it works.

Cheers,
Harv

I had a look here Phil but they are all five and six leaf. I put the sedan ones under my ute, but in the end I added an extra bottom leaf.

Got the PM. Got under the house and dragged out the springs. No spooder bites.

Light scale only as per photos below. For some reason the forum will upload large photos from my phone, but not in PMs. Must be some iPhone image resizer magic there somewhere as you can’t upload files that big off a laptop either.

Springs would pack to 1300x300x150mm and weigh 21kg. Aussie Post would do the weight (if I sent one spring per parcel) but not the length (max 105mm). You sort the freight out and the springs are free.

Sendle have been pretty good when I’ve sent stuff a bit longer or heavier than Aussie post allow. Door to door too.

A lot of the courier brokers are cheap, but it depends heavily on who their local contractor is. One of my locals (based about 15km away) who has the e-Go contract is horrific... have had them walk up the driveway with bolts falling out of a box (and bend studs on a supercharger) and tell me it was sent that way... twice. Watched them skid door panels across a warehouse floor with a forklift. Have had a crossmember sent to me, accepted by the courier with no address on it (it sat in their local depot for two months before I hunted down where it was). Have had sendle's local agent give me the runaround too. You pay a bit more for one of the name brand couriers but the service is generally better, at least for the receiver.

No problem. I'll PM you the name/address details for pickup. Let me know once you've sorted the courier and I'll bundle them up and label as needs be.
