Where can you get Rear Spring Clips?

Does anyone know if you can buy the clips / rubber that help to hold the rear leaf springs together. I can't see them listed on any of the parts suppliers. Are they available as a part or just as part of a new/reconditioned spring?

Cheers

Hi

You can make your own clips quite easily just obtain some steel strip the correct thickness and fold them up in the vice.

You can get rivets on ebay etc. The bolts on top are coach bolt type fitted in mild steel tubes.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I dont think minors originally had rubbers fitted. If you want to fit these just make the clips slightly wider to leave space for the rubber. :D :D :D
