in my experience, you get what you pay for.

AND

never be the first one to try something new when youre trying to be cheap.

i would definitely lean more towards finding some springs (new or used) that have been used by other owners, so you KNOW its what you want.

also, that site seems to ship UPS, and if you havent had something shipped to canada via UPS before, ill fill you in on a little secret: they charge you A LOT of brokerage fees. if ordering from the states, youll want to get something shipped USPS (united states postal service) to avoid brokerage fees.

but all that shipping stuff is moot if you plan to ship just across the border at say Ogdensburg, or something....and picking it up yourself....
