For my current project (a ute), I am making a rear spring out of 2 old ones. Both have broken leaves and I can't get a 10 leaf spring out of them without shortening one so I'll settle for 9 leaves.
From this thread, I'm even more hopeful than before that it will be OK - maybe even a bit hard but there will be times when it carries a bit of a load. A reasonable compromise, I think.
