I might have a little Christmas money to spend this year. One thing high on the list is to address my leaf spring situation. I drive a pickup cab IIa with the top removed in the summer so I am pretty light weight. Seldom carry anything but if I do it is a load of concrete or gardening materials (maybe twice a year). Current plan is to stay with OEM style springs but add the slippery plastic (UHMW ?) between leaves.
Is there a place to buy Genuine springs? How are RN's Proline? I've spent the last few hours searching through this forum looking at threads with the word "spring" in them. Hasn't really helped much. Not even sure that I have a question. I suppose I just need to decide if this is the most important purchase on the list.
Has anybody compared new springs with new bushings to Parabolic springs with new bushing?
Anybody have a set of Genuine old, low mileage, OEM springs from when they converted to Parabolics?
Consider the can of worms open.
