Need Good Leaf Springs, New, not Refirb... Source?

[70DusterBob]

Anyone know where to get some newly mfged leaf springs? I had the ones I have on the car now refirbed about 14 years ago, but they are sagging again. They did last, but I would like some new, perky ones. Does anyone know if anyone makes these anymore?

Thanks

ESPO Springs and Things is a great place to get them.

John R Spring Service, Troy, MI is another good source.

Suggest you get the 6 leaf springs for 340 cars from ESPO. I always order them with an extra inch of arch, then when they settle after a year they are at stock height.

Also thanks for letting me know about the larger eye bolts. Mine used to be a/6.

yea mine was also. i just drilled the stock hangers to fit the larger bolts. think the hole was 5/8 but not 100% sure it was so long ago,,

Yeah I think the /6 hole is 1/2".

and the ESPO springs will come with the new front bushing already pressed in. I think you can order the new correctly sized, correct strength bolts from them when you order.

Exellent. I will either drill the hole out for the bigger bolt or just use the one they give me. Good deal that they are already pressed in. They offer the poly bushings, which I will get.

Just got through installing 002 & 004 Mopar super stock springs in a 72 Duster. They made a big difference in the rear ride height compared to the old tired stock springs. Ordered them from Amazon, $125.00 each, free shipping.

I like these, and there is an option for a 2-1/2" lift w/6 leafs. Sounds good to me.

I have these. Caution, if your springs are sagging now you will get 4+" of lift. Don't get me wrong, I like them but it was a surprise when they where first installed.
