Title: 1956 Leaf Spring
Post by: JungleCadd on July 12, 2024, 04:41:06 PM
Greetings Cad Community

Can some one tell me or shot my a photo of their factor leaf spring set up?

Im ordering a new set from EATON that has 5 leafs.

Currently i am riding on a set that looks like it may have been factory but it only has two leaf and the shorty center leaf.

Here is a shot of my 55 when I reassembled my leaf springs for the Eldorado.  I think all springs have 5 leafs except maybe CC, but the leafs are different depending on model.

Check the 3rd post for images of the springs.
