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?

I heard more than a few times that Mazda had spring recalls for our cars(not sure what years tho), free things are nice arent they? :D lol later

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.
