Default Re: Rear spring

Good Work!

When I put mine back together I used some graphite spray between the leaves...

That made it pretty "springy" when hitting small bumps or low spots going through intersections.

I finally put shocks on.

The shocks were planned anyway but the fewer leaves( from 13 to 8) and lubricated spring made them happen a little sooner..I may put a leaf back someday...

This is what I used. It dries almost immediately.

There are other similar products..Slip Plate is one...
