Heres some on old school mini bikes if the OldMiniBikes warehouse doesn't have them.

Really nice 5'' springs with weld on cups.
Marked off my fork tubes to weld on the cups...3'' at the top and 2'' at the bottom.
I welded the cups from the bottom side, and will have to clean them up a little with a dye grinder. But no welds on the top of the cups, I think it just has a little bit cleaner look to it.
I got the forks done and I think they turned out all right.....and they have plenty of cushion to them.
Went a head and made a couple of 1''1/2 spacers to space the front wheel centered in the forks. I used regular 1/2'' pipe and just cut to fit. Used the dye grinder with a rotary file attached to open up the inside just a smidge.
A pic of Tom and the completed suspension forks.....they seem to work good .
