Default Rear leaf spring liner

Anyone know where I can get this liner local? They sell it in the States for $16.99 for the 2 1/2" but don't ship to Canada. I need 20'.

SPRING LINER WITH LIP, 2-1/4"

Maybe a spring shop? I checked and couldn't find anything similar from Metro Molded.

That's one of the first places I tried and didn't get good feedback since it was such a small order. I only need 20'.

I would have thought a good spring shop would have something in stock in rolls.

Got a link to the place you found it at? Is it a universal item or Corvette specific?

I guess I could but I don't think that would be too cost effective.

Not sure if it's Corvette specific, it's 2 1/4" by 20'.

It would appear a fellow member was able to get me some and awaits for my arrival to pick them up. I will let you know who it is if said person says it's ok.

I hope it's what I need and will let you know how it works out.

Thanks for everyone's help.

Shipped to the front door? No, no, no. It might come in contact with it and Frank doesn't want to chance anything happening to his front door. It might get scratched then he'll have to paint it, but then it won't match the garage door so add that to the list right after the kitchen and bathroom renovation and then...ah you get it.

Frank's a busy guy, not that there's anything wrong with that.

Where's Mickman? He can testify!

Front door is supposed to match the garage door? Crap, I've got painting to do and it took enough coats to do the front doors.

This is the same as the carpet matching the drapes right? How often does that happen?... yeah, rarely!

See what happens when I don't visit my thread.

Steve, I removed one trailing arm and am in the process of taking it apart. I'm having one hell of a time removing the second trailing arm but will drop by when I have the chance. I haven't forgotten.

Thanks again.

Stpman dropped off the rear leaf spring liner today, therefore all is well.
