My M416 springs are so rusty they are spread apart. I need to replace them at some point. Are they a M416 only item or is there a comparable item. I thought I heard the M100 used Jeep springs. Obviously M151 springs will not work but I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. If you have some to sell let me know. I may not be able to get them until after Xmas.
Thanks
Chuck

Try calling Arc spring, Their on 8 mile road in Farmington hills. They can custom make pretty much any set up from scratch or rebuild what you have. It's been a while since i've dealt with them but have used them on many occasions when I had my service station in Livonia.

That is pretty cheap. Thanks for the info. I hope they still have them in stock after Christmas.
