Thx,

OK guys, I was out of commission over the weekend but I'm back. I haven't ordered yet. To be clear, the following list is for one Century Spring P/N 72577. I will PM everyone after the order is made for the final cost. I'll do a flat fee that includes shipping to the contiguous US. If you live outside the cont. US we will have to figure out shipping costs because I can't shoulder the extra charges there. My estimate cost will be $15 each inc. shipping but I can not guarantee that price until I see the final costs. I'm not going to make any money on this, what you pay for is what it costs me and no more.

The list is as follows:

1. Vaughanabe13
2. usmc_nick
3. pedelg24
4. 2011 Nismo#91
5. newyen27
6. ChipsWithDips
7. Jack370Z
8. Pangotti

Please let me know by the end of today if there are any problems with this list. Otherwise I'm going to go ahead and order 8 springs.

If its not to late, I'd be in for one. The list is for eight, but if it works, count me in!

Ok, I'll expand the list to a maximum of 10 people. I don't want to go more than 10 at this time.

Sounds great Vaughanabe. Thanks!

When will you get your orders Vaughanabe13? And when should we paypal you?

Alex

np. I haven't gotten a shipping email yet but I placed the order on Monday afternoon (8/22). I'm assuming they already shipped (I have already been billed) so I'll update you guys when they arrive. I thought about having you guys send payments early but I am more comfortable waiting until I have the product in my hands - that way I won't have to deal with paypal reimbursements if something happens to the order.

For anyone that missed out but still wants a replacement spring I have lots in stock ready to ship!

Looks like they want a 4 piece minimum.

Vaughanabe13, put me down for 1 if you still have an extra.

Payment sent. Thanks Vaughanabe13!

B&W_Evader · 09-12-2011, 11:46 AM

Got mine in the mail on Friday. Thanks Mike!

Canada Post Service LOL shoulda known it would take a while.

Sent something from SF Bay area to Canada once, didn't get delivered and came back like 2 or 3 months later. I think I calculated the speed of the package at 1 MPH LOL. Coulda walked faster than that Canada Post.

Vaughanabe13 · 08-29-2011, 09:26 PM

So I'm outside trying to take out the old helper spring and something annoying happens. I pop the C clip off the bottom of the spring and the thing shoots off somewhere in the car and I hear a little metallic "dink". I honestly have no clue where it went, I removed the panel next to the assembly and pulled up the carpet and searched around in there with a flashlight but I can't find the stupid thing! What are my options here, has anyone found replacement C clips that I could buy if I can't find it? I haven't gone any further at this point, I don't want to mess anything up.

ok so the pin got a gouge in it so it will not push thru, can this pin be bought a local hardware store?

edit: fixed it
