I'm still trying to help Kara find a replacement for her cracked left rear spring (OEM) on her 1990 Miata. Miataworld II is fast approaching and she plans to drive the car from Central Florida to Fort Worth TX. If anyone has an extra NA rear spring, please contact me as soon as possible so I can put you in contact with Kara. Thank you.
I'm sure ive got one in G'ville. PM me and I will look tomorrow.
For about $50 I could set her up with a 550lb/inch double adjustable aluminum R1 coilover on that corner. Of course that might be odd having one corner have a spring rate higher than the total of the other 3, but that's what makes life interesting isn't it. In all honesty I just looked through the garage and didn't find a stock set, but I think I have a pair in the side yard.

I'm kicking myself because I gave the set I had away.

So you're saying I will kick myself if I let the side yard set go? Honestly isn't she an ex?

You'll only be kicking yourself if a few months later you have a Miata crack a stock spring. And yes, shes my ex, but its... complicated. We are sharing a room in TX.

Good luck in your search

Wowak-think I've got one. It's from a '97. PM me if you still need it, it's yours for shipping costs.
97 springs are taller than 90's. In any case, you should really replace both sides if you want the car to sit level.
Ive got 2 tall ones with blue dots and 2 short ones with red dots.
I've got a set of 4 springs and shocks (the shocks are shot) from a 1990. Email me and we can set something up.
