Subject: Re: Troublesome leaf springs
I empathize with and anticipate similar problems .This topic is very discouraging especially for me in the hinterlands. The specifications for M45 springs must have existed somewhere at some time. A local old timer gave me a crash course in re-setting leaves with a hammer and anvil but the task proved too arduous for me and I gave up . I have heard of a shop in Detroit that specializes in vintage car leaf spring rebuilds . I may be heading there.
