Hello,Regarding your request for springs, if as i presume you are asking for sprunghub spring box springs i must point out under NO circumstances should you dismantle the spring box without specialist equipment.Experienced dealers will not strip the spring box as a mistake can cause death!!! I can sell you a complete used sprung hub spring box if you need one.
I can tell you in 30 years i have never replaced one! email me and we can discusss it and or anything triumph. regards David

A 1947 wouldn't have had the Sprung-hub originally either.
