I need a good rear spring from a 87-90 lt250r I just had my rear shock rebuilt on my wifes quad and when I sit on it it is bottomed out. So I assume its the spring.
I have a stock spring off my 87 you can have,just pay the shipping.Mind you I,m up in Ontario Canada.Stock springs are way too soft imo.
Who sells aftermarket springs for s stock shock?
OR it could be your fat @$$. lol
if its the wifes quad, why are you on it. lol
I have retained some winter fat !!! I'm just finishing up a clean up on her quad. I've had it since dinosaurs roamed the earth and never restored it come on John you have to have 8 or 9 extras laying around
250 parts are something that i dont have much of. lol

I use race tech springs but I,m sure there are others as well.
According to eibach's website a 500 spring will work. A stock 250 is 4.0kg and a 500 is 5.0kg.
If that is not enough then a banshee rear spring 97 and up is rated at 5.5 or 5.4 depending on years.
Older banshee springs will physically fit but the spring rate will be too high at 6.8 kg.
So john can sell you one of his 8 or 9 zilla springs he has hoarded.
He's a hoarder. Hoarders don't sell or give the take and collect!! Lol. I called race tech that's where I get my rebuild kits and they don't know the lt250r specs. They also said their springs are typically eibach. And eibach Wont sell to the public apparently.
That's odd.Race Tech has a spring rate chart on their site.Just enter the info.A Zilla spring may work,though its a fair bit longer and I,d have to check if its small enough on the one end.The 250,s are tapered not sure about the 500,s.Like I said the rear springs are too soft.Gonna check on the shipping tomorrow but if it was me I,d go with a stiffer spring.
My hybrid spring is stock and seems fine. But I haven't ridden the wife's in years. Her narrow ass don't compress it at all! Lol
Thanks again Dustin Hoffman
a zilla spring is bigger round then a 250,
