Default Leaf Spring Liners?

Hi everyone,

I am restoring my 55 and my current project is the leaf springs. The liners on mine are shot. They appear to be cardboard soaked in wax? Does anyone know where I can purchase these? I spoke with Eaton Detroit Spring and they did not have a pair. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

I’ve used the Paragon liners. They are nice pieces.

That's a strange interliner. Mopar leaf spring inter liners are sheets of thin zinc.
