I googles this number and searched this site. Can anyone identify these springs?

Thanks

My guess would be BMR. Maybe try contacting them and see if those numbers mean anything to them.

Looks like BMR to me

Not Ours!

BMR Sales - thank you for looking. I thought BMR as well.
Is red a common or uncommon for springs? Any thoughts on who else to look at?

There is no problem with them. I am making alot of suspension changes. If the springs are from reputable company, I see no reason to replace them. But I can not find any manufacturing info on the spring other thank that number.
I feel like replacing them just because I dont know who made them.

Sorry if I sound stupid....but if they are not an issue and woking fine....why replace?
I think Pedders are red also.

JusticePete over at JPSS has put together his Z/28 light package for me. It does not make sense to me to add ton of goodies from Z/28 and 1/LE and have some unknown springs.

Because what if these are my springs....

On the bright side I found pictures of B&G springs red with the same type of tattoo powder coat number on it. It only looks similar, I can't confirm the exact number.

Could be B&G springs, mine look just like that but I would have to crawl under car to see if they have a number stamped on them...

cmack · 06-03-2017, 07:12 AM

Finally found a picture that help but not exactly confirm.

Towards bottom are pictures of he B&G springs for V6, I have SS. My number is 80142 ... and his is 80141. The same range of numbers and the same printing of the numbers. I did send B&G an email but I am sure that will wait till next week.

Mystery Solved - B & G confirmed "80142 519" is their spring for 2011 Camaro SS. I do appreciate those who chimed in.
