Very cool, thank you rrodriguezsal. My springs are in ok shape so I would pass if someone has a need for a set right now. If not I would also like to pay for shipping.

Esteban wrote:Have an incredible announcement to make. Member rrodriguezsal wrote an email this morning telling me that he has ordered 40 springs total made (20 lefts and 20 rights) So those are good for 10 vehicles with 2 vents each.

He has decided to give them for free to the members of 60Patrol, as a way of giving thanks for this wonderful site. :clap: :clap: :clap:
One of his buddies is going to ship the springs to my house by the end of the week (Raul is in Brazil at the moment). I will then forward in sets to the members that have already requested them.

L60Boerne - 2 sets for the 3-vent
Zed: 1 set for the 2-vent
Mattbob53: 1 set for the 2-vent
RiverPatrol: 1 set of the 2-vent, 1 set for the 3-vent
Esteban: 1 set for the 3-vent
TOTAL # of springs: 36

Thanks a lot Raul (rrodriguezsal) Very kind of you!


The springs arrived yesterday! :clap: :clap: :clap: The following is a picture of all of them (actually missing 1) Notice that they are left and right. To the members that requested, please send me a PM with your address so I can send you the individual package. I will check tomorrow at options with the Post Office.

Not to worry! Most of us are using them as spares for some broken ones, or as stock for later use.

Thanks again Raul.

Edgar, I do recall there is a difference in springs between the 63 and 65 year model. First you need to confirm which you have. The earlier 63 springs are thicker gauge wire.

Then once you know thick or then gauge, then the # you need then I will start digging.

If i cant find them Raul will likely make some more for you.

How is your Patrol coming along?

Mine is a 67. It is coming along slowly. I have been on business in West Africa for a few weeks. Got home yesterday and anxious to tear into it again this weekend. Also, trying to find the following: side steps, rear tail light, canvas soft top. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
