It has the threaded bushing type - are the replacement ones from Jim Carter and Bowtie Bits the same type? Also thinking of removing the 2 bottom leaves on the spring pack to soften the ride a little. Am I asking for trouble if I do this?

Since your in Tenn. and JimCarter is Stovebolt friendly and gives Stovebolters a 10% discount amd only actual shipping cost so it may be more economical to get them from Jim. Many others have them.
Can't help you on the springs. I've never done that. However I am running all my original springs on my 37 with a nice set of shocks mounted under it and it rides pretty good. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 54 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 54 | I am in Tennessee also and have found that Advance Auto and O'Reilly parts can order some of these old parts and get new old stock. The parts that I get from them are cheaper and made in USA. The things I have ordered are for a 46 but it would be worth a try.
