Where in Canada can I purchase a 7 leaf spring?
Or are the USA companies the best option?
Does one company sell a better spring, or are they all equal?

You can still get original ( specs ) springs, I just got a front pair for 75 bucks, I believe they came from Monroe/Moog or something like that I can look on the box. Some companies still make the orginal springs and they aren't too expensive ask you local mechanic.

GM Canada is pretty good for C3 parts. They surprised me at first until I realized that their computer system was linked into the US and they were sourcing depots down there as well as Montreal and Woodstock. Try your local Chev dealer. GM is pricey, however. At least on the initial price. But you buy in $CDN and do not pay brokerage and shipping fees.

AS Tom said , check out the mono single spring...the new vettes dont have the old metal springs for a good reason..... I put a single high tech spring on my 66 big/block ( 8Lb as opposed to 44 Lbs) easy to do it yourself :smash: anyways worked for my 66...... :chevy :flag
