Re: Leaf Springs - repair or replace?

if that is your worst spring eye just throw new bushings in and your good to go
i've never heard of springs getting old and brittle. pitted and rusty, yes
my experience is a 10 year old spring is as likely to break as a 60 yr old spring
do replace the center bolt, clean and paint before assembly
