This is something I started to investigate a while back. Got some leads but am yet to follow up. Will make a point of doing so next week.

I agree they're important for CMP resto, not just appearance but also comfort and driveability, esp. over uneven ground. They're virtually integral to the suspension.

Default Seat cushion springs-CMP Trucks

Keith,
This might be a source of seat cushion springs to have manufactured in Melbourne:

I used a company in Dandenong to make the brake adjuster cam springs many years ago. They will wind any type, or size, of coil spring given a sample. He also made a brake master cylinder rod return spring to my sample.

If they are still in business, they were called The Spring Shop and were located at 27A Amberley Cres Dandenong 3175 Ph. 9794-9399.
They were a small operation and had a minimum $20 charge in those days so they were happy to do one-off or small run jobs.
