JayG Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I always wondered why my roadster sat so high and I think the problem is too many leaves in the springs. Being an early 25 (A160xxx) according to the DB Master Parts List it should have 9 leaves in the front. Mine has 11. I can remedy that. The rear spring assembly is noted as part number 19119 and is listed for Roadster and Wooded Coupe. The problem is it doesn't specify the number of leaves like it does for the front assembly.Anyone out there with a 24 or 25 Roadster (929894 thru A207373) that could tell me how many leaves are correct for the rear spring I would appreciate the help. Even if your numbers don't fit this range I'd like to hear from you. Thanks, Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyAus Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Hi JayMy 1925 series roadster (A283946) has seven leaves in the rear springs. And these are definitely the original springs. I have no reason to believe that the 1924 series roadster would be any different as the weights would be the same.Hope this helps.Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayG Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 Tony - Thanks for the response. Could you verify that the front has 9 leaves? Also any chance of a picture that would show me the leaves in the rear? I need to know which ones were added to mine and which ones need to stay. Thanks again, Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyAus Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Jay, I can confirm that the front springs have nine leaves. Photos of both rear and front springs attached to prove that I tell the truth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayG Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 Tony - Thanks so much. I appreciate the pics. They will allow me to assemble the springs with the proper leaves. Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
