Need help real bad.

Please help. If anyone knows where to get these car seat springs please let me know. I’ve never needed them so I don’t know where to even begin looking. Thank everyone. I will do a WTB next if they are even available.

I need a lot of them. Maybe 40 or 50.

Lol. Not sure. I’m thinking about asking my upholstery guy tomorrow. I really wanted to paint everything while I had the seats down to bare springs. Then I see over half of them are broken.

I seriously doubt that the manufacturer would go to the expense to put in all those springs if they were not needed for the seat to function as designed. Just wiring them together may make for less comfortable seating. Ma Mopar had some pretty good designers and engineers.....Be a bitch to put the seats together, and then have to take them back apart.

I'm guessing back in the day that seat got a real workout at the drive in!

Thanks guys, I think I’m good on the seat springs. Had to locate another seat for parts.
