Re: 54 3100 leaf springs

The replacement springs looked really good. A little rusty, but all the pins and bushings are in great condition. Good enough to reuse.
(can't say so much about the old ones .... jeeesh, nearly cut through)

And, it took the large majority of the lean out. You can see near the axle, there's just a slight lean now, might be able to correct that with the rear springs ... maybe.

BTW, I miscounted, there are 9 leaves in the front, not 8 ... or 10. Must be a custom job.

Oh, and the truck is more level front to rear as well. Looks much better, (to me).
Thanks guys.
