Springs REB 000790

David3807 · 23rd October 2008, 10:32

Been offered a couple of brand new springs with MG Rover part number
REB 000790 with a green paint mark but I can not find exactly what they are for. With a number starting REB would guess for the front end but front end of what ???

Would appreciate it if anyone can identify

Thanks

Thanks Mike - been there but cant see the actual number in the listing.

Could be for a Tourer/ZT as the number starts 000 but thats as far as I am getting.

REB000790 was a number issued for a service action by MGR.
It should consist of spring REB101420 ( green/white ) and isolator RBC100150.

Fits a Rover 75 - 1800cc - front

Thanks Stu.

Does that mean they are a bit old - part of original recall for springs back in 2003/2004 perhaps ??

Spot on. That's why they are not listed in EPC.

Dates from 25/03/2002 on original PCR. ( Product Change Request )

Ah. Thanks for that. So that would also explain why, if you drop the number into thepart.com, the price comes up at about £18 instead of expected £55 ish.

Anyway Stu many thanks for solving the mystery.
