WANTED - atom 3 Springs

[Lew]

Hello,

I've converted my grease bellcranks to wheel bearing ones and now my suspension is way too soft, the guys at the factory confirmed that I need to change them.

I have the non adjustable bilstein and I'm so looking for those eibach springs :
2 x ARIEL 18,75/50 N/mm
2 X ARIEL 13,33/40 N/mm

I of course asked the factory but they can't have them anymore and sadly I don't have the budget for a new set of shocks...

Many thanks

Will these do? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ariel-Atom-E ... SwHuVfS5GR

Cheers !

Are you the seller ?
It says it's for adjustable bilstein, I have the non-adjustable version and I cannot contact the seller through ebay somehow ?

[Fastlane]

I'm not the seller. The adjustables require seperate helper springs so these may not fit your dampers without them or at all. Perhaps contact the factory again and ask their advice, they may be able to sell you the helper springs?

Yup that's my thought as well as the non-adjustable bilstein have progressive springs and those looks to be linear ones.

Hi Lew,

Who have converted your bellcranks? You or the factory.
I'm interested to convert too. So please send me a picture that I understand what you talk about.

2 x ARIEL 18,75/50 N/mm
2 X ARIEL 13,33/40 N/mm

Help me to identify the numbers 18,75/50 and 13,33/40.
Tell me the numbers on your old springs now.

You dont need to buy a complete set of shocks - only springs.

Yes, this springs at ebay are linear ones - the adjustable bilstein dampers have linear springs plus helper springs.

I bought wheel bearing bellcranks at my dealer and I replaced them, it's fairly easy assuming no balljoint is seized.

currently I have those:
Front:
15/30 N/mm
Rear:
17,14/40 N/mm

the other numbers 18,75/50 (rear) and 13,33/40 (front) are the one from my mate Atom 3 with same dampers. I assumed these were the one I need since we both have the same dampers and he has the wheel bearing bellcrank.

Yes that's what I asked, only springs but to quote Matt :

Sadly, we do not have any of the 50 N/mm springs. These springs were manufactured for us but have not been in production for over 5 years. It would not be economically viable to source/supply these springs now.

I found some old stock at an eibach reseller here, so I'll move the rears to front and put those new one at the rear, waiting for new dampers thanks everybody
