Re: Quick HD leaf spring pack build
Here it is installed, worked out very well, we were really happy with the ride as well.
With the added leaf it gave the rear end a .5" lift and it was much stiffer. Worked perfectly for this application! |

Re: Quick HD leaf spring pack build
I work for a Spring-Shop(Thru-Way Spring.Look us up),we build 80% of our inventory from raw spring-steel and build custom springs.By bolting the leaves,you are going to cause stress at that point.When the springs flex,they grow/shrink,but they also deflect.By bolting them,you are limiting that movement(I know you slotted them).A better way would be to use pads on the springs to prevent squeaking(RI-250)they press in and are very durable.Then if you want to clamp the springs,use Klincher-Klips(they wrap around the spring like factory-ones).In the completed shot,it looks as if the shackles are swung way back,is this a stock set-up?Usually,you would want them vertical or just tilted a little,as they will swing rearward when the suspension compresses.The guy that taught me has done spring-work since 72',Hes' good and I work next to him every day.Hope this helps.
