Re: [Quantum Owners] Front strut spring cups.

Sorry , Yes you are right.  Must keep looking.  Hopefully someone is 
remanufacturing.  Maybe Fiesta owners club might know?  Sprayed mine in wax 
oil, so still there.

[Quantum Owners] Front strut spring cups.

2021-08-30 Thread Rick Finlan 
Hi, I'm having difficulty finding new or good front spring top cups.  
Rebuilding my saloons front struts using new springs and shocks, the top 
mount and plate are good ( galvanised I think) but the spring cups below 
mount are both rusted through and very thin after cleaning them up. Does 
anyone have or has recently successfully found a source for these parts?  
1985 XR2 I believe. Thx
