Thanks Stuart,
I get it now.
Have you or anyone purchased Patrick's new leaf spring kit?
I spoke with the stock spring manufacturer Eastman. 53 year old metal will not, can not perform like new metal.(that's why the reason for a sway bar) My old springs could be placed back in the oven an retempered. That would do it. They would still be rusty though. New 'stock' springs could be ordered from they but would actually cost a bit more than Patrick's.
