Anyone got an IRS spring plate up for grabs? I only need the one so can use it as a template for cutting my swing plates down to size.
the splines can be knackered just so long as its from an IRS bug and is straight

Thanks

Single plate is fine dude as only using it as a template for cutting the swings down.

Remember there are different holes for left and right,
so do all of the holes so they will fit both sides,
and all types of trailing arms

I thought T1 & T3 IRS arms are the same? Tis what I've been told. And hence the T1 and T3 spring plates will be the same.
If I need both sides for marking up the holes for the trailing arms then so be it. I find it odd that the sloted holes in the plates are the same for each side as this would mean easier manufacturing. 🤪

Just go down to Custom Vee Dub and ask them nicely to use their templates to scribe the plates for you and then you can go home and cut them out to suit.
