Progressive Suspension from the USA?
There's a couple of bike suspension guys around, Can't think of the guys business name in Brisbane, but he's at Slacks Creek, Maybe someone knows his number, he's sure to have a solution

The guy at slacks creek is Steve at Suspension Improvements, 3208 0082.

I have some springs out of other bikes that you might be able to get to fit. What diameter and length?
