Regardless, I would like to correct the weak springs. I found an upholsterer in town who will take it apart and fix it.
What replacement spring parts should i get for him when i drop off the seat?
Thanks

I would think any good upholstery guy would have a spring in his shop that will do the job. Ask him?? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 61 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 61 | He did say he might have some, but im just trying to have everything for him ready. I just dont want him to have it for a week b/c he's waiting for a $3 part to come in the mail.
