Scrapping a car and springs

[Scottryan86]

If your car had Ford racing springs up front and you were scrapping the car would you remove and save the springs?

Wouldn't you need to put some sort of spring back to be able to move the car?


They are probably worth $80-100 or so. If your time is worth that, go for it

Yes, I would save all the springs. Done it several times. Just make sure you mark them so you can id them later.

That's a valid point lol. I suppose I could pull the old ones out of the other car first? May be more work than it's worth though for springs. I'd still have to get it on the trailer somehow so rolling will be key.

Just my thoughts but here goes. I HATE FORD RACING SPRINGS!!!! I've had C's and B's. Still have B's in the front right now and they are awful. I'd take stock springs over FRPP springs any day. Any like was said above, make sure to tag them....that way you'll know which springs to never install again. Ok, I feel better now.

Yeah I would save them and sell them. I have c springs in the rear of my coupe with a coil cut and they are fine. Just cut a piece of wood up and replace spring with said peice of wood to get it to the yard.
