Default Where to find a sachs shock spring?

Ok, got my 2010 EC300 dismantled to change the shock spring, i need a 58N/mm. Got one from my local dealer, who got recommendations from the importer, it was a racetech kyb/showa spring. It didnt fit. It was too tall, and a little to wide in one end.

Is there a supplier of sachs springs somewhere?

i know the sachs fits on a ohlins - maybe the ohlins will fit on the sachs? the sachs spring is a few mm wider i.d.

You have to machine the spring retainers if you want to use the ohlins as the 2mm smaller ID. Other than that you can go to a Husky dealer, which is what I did.

I got another lead too, TM has the sachs boge rear shock also.

But why, Gasgas factory, aren't you supplying springs in different rates?
