1978 Rear Leaf Spring
Does the '78 have a different Leaf Spring? Looking to replace standard 9-leaf Spring (63-78) . . . Eckler's site says:
"•Original 9-Leaf Design (2-1/4" Width)
•On 1978 Models, Measure Mount Area Width Before Ordering"
which makes me nevrous to order it.
Wound a 79-82 Spring fit on our '78?

Yup, it is 2.5, not 2 1/4. Had a buddy with a 2 1/4 for me. Thanks
