Who says you can't teach and old dog......!
I'm pretty sure I've become a convert thanks to the ride me
and Bruce took last week. He talked me into juicing up the
leaves with the cable lube. Like Joe posted, even a heavy
grease will work out at the contact points of the leaf pack.
I'm anticipating giving mine a squirt every couple of weeks,
which is gonna get old before summer is over for sure.
So....I'm pretty sure now that I'm gonna opt for a set of
liners when I finally get the nerve up to pull the rest of the
truck off the frame for the full restoration.
Teflon seems to be the buzz word whenever I skim through
discussions about leaf springs. But Mike Eaton seems to have a
little different take on what material is best. He can say it
much better than I can so I'll shut my yap and link ya to it,
that is, if you care to see another take on the subject:
