if its just that spring you need i would imagine Suzuki main dealer is your best bet.

what do you mean by dont stock them? normally parts like that seem to get shipped in from germany, i think thats suzuki's nearest big warehouse. im shocked you cant get one from them, had all sorts of wierd and wonderful parts from them for my 86 SJ. Dunno what to suggest im afraid is Suzuki themselves cant help.

I had a Suzuki main dealer in Scarborough and just went in, the bits were hard to describe so they got out their little books of exploded diagrams and pictures so i could just point at what i needed.

I'll be honest, last time I went to a local suzuki dealer they were dire, they were no help at all They wouldn't even get the book out and just said they wouldn't have it, I rang a different dealership and they were great, it all depends how helpful the parts department wants to be, the first dealership I went to has since shut down,
