Ca77 advance springs source

Post by Tinman » Fri Aug 23, 2013 1:30 pm

Does anybody know of a source for the ca77 advance springs (14329-259-310)? eBay has them for $40 for the pair, but that's a bit high. Or, can you substitute the cb/cl springs that are available?

Thx,
Tinman

They look like they are different after all, as they have different part numbers.

I realize the others are for the CB/CL and the spring tension is probably a bit stiffer and the length maybe be different as well. I just don't know if they're a good substitute. I maybe S.O.L., but I was waiting for one of the Guru's to chime in and shed some light. Thx for the info.

Yeah, I am new to the 305s and I just wanted to make sure you knew that the part numbers were different. I also found out the CL305 is different than the CB!

Hopefully a true GURU will know.... ;^)

Good Luck!

The DREAM spring is a touch longer than the CB/CL which are the same. ................lm

Not sure why, but the parts books for the CL and CB had listed them with different numbers. I suppose they could be "superseded" or something like that? Glad you cleared that up LM!
