The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline 1946 Chevy Truck Front Leaf Springs

I'm installing my front axle and was wondering if anyone had measurements on which way the leaf springs are installed. I wanted to make sure I install them correctly. I had the springs rebuilt and one end has the smooth bushing and the other has the threaded bushing. I know the threaded end goes to the front with a shackle and the other end is mounted with one large bolt. The leaf spring has a short and long end from the centering pin. About 18 inches and 20 inches. My old pictures looks like the long end goes to the front, but my springs have the smooth bushing on that end and not the threaded bushing for the shackle. Just checking to see if the spring shop rebuilt my spring correctly before a install the front axle. Maybe I worry too much. Thanks for any input.
