rear spring broken :(
rear spring broken :(
After fixing my tranny i discover another problem, one of my rear springs is broke and is needed to be replaced. I´m thinking about bying a used one from the junk yard, but there isn´t any MX3 cars there, perhaps I could use springs from other Mazda cars? like the Mazda 626 or 323? any ideas?

Re: rear spring broken :(
that only applies to areas that have weather conditions that would cause salt to eat at the spring. It does NOT apply everywhere. But call ur local dealer and ask.
