Are the rear springs the same in a '74 142 and a '71 142? I found a source for new springs, but the supplier's information only goes back to '74. My guess is that they are the same, or that they are the same as those in a 240. I sort of feel compelled to find out before ordering.

Second, question. I was informed that the springs for a 240 will fit a 140, except for the mounting at the top (thanks for the information). Does anyone have some of the cones used at the top for attachment of 240 springs?

Thanks for the help. I had forgotten how valuable this site it.
