Rear spring
I have the trans out to have new brass put in it. I have the exhaust pipes
Off the rear pipes are hanging,I am going to have the car judged sometime and intend to change the composite rear spring back to a regular spring . Should I go right to Eaton or buy one from a vendor on
Here,a few years ago I changed the one on my 67and got it from them
I guess no one sells one like the origonals with the ends turned up? The
Build sheet says f41 I guess that is a 7 leaf, I will get liners and paint
And put it together . Alan if you see this could you please send me your
Pic of that spring ,thanks . One more question don't I remember a
Dressing between the leafs? Maybe someone has a spring for sale . I guess
I should do this now with the exhaust almost down ,thanks for reading .
Ps long winded!

Hi jb,
Take a look at 'Americas Finest Corvette' and Eaton for their reproduction F41 springs.
There was no 'dressing' used between the leaves or liners.
I'm not sure which photo you're referring to?

Alan
Original 9 leaf/reproduction liners.
