Saddles and parts

[robbdaman]

I'm looking for replacement springs and posts for my sweet leather saddle and I'm having a heck of a time finding anything at all online for just the parts I need. I suppose I could just go buy up a new cheap saddle and use those if they would fit but I'd have to go do that at a store. I can get dimensions of the saddle, spring and all the parts if needed. Anyone have any ideas where to find these parts?

what kind is it?

 

[robbdaman]

I think it's a custom deal, perhaps made from an older seat, there is no brand name on it anywhere.

you're not helping. do you have any pictures?

you can get all kinds of springs for old saddles. look up "spring seat" or "springer seat" on ebay.

Yeah I suppose it doesn't help, I can take a picture but I'm guessing I may have to go look at some seats at a local shop and see what matches or is close. Then I can at least see if I can find a cheap used one to replace the springs.
