Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

They are "U" shaped then there is a back plate that goes on. You bend the ears down after you sandwich the spring. Or there is a stronger type that has a U shape and a bolt that locks it around the leaf.

Is there a hole in the spring? The old one's had the U part riveted onto the leaf. The new one's have a notch to fit into that hole, or you could put a few tack welds on it.

If you have trouble finding a set I can send you some for actual cost. I would need to know how wide the spring is though.....
