Leaf Springs

I have a 72 K5 and I have heard a clunking in the rf area. After looking it over I found that the rf leaf spring rear eye cracked and broke off. I want to replace with new stock springs. Does anyone have a preferred place to purchase leaf springs and hardware?

Re: Leaf Springs

Blownz, I wanted to replace mine with stock also. They were so hard to find that I had mine re-arched at a local spring shop, that I think most good sized towns have. I looked at brand new ones they make and I can't see much difference between my stock ones and theirs.

Stock height springs. The 22-384 are the front and the 403 are the rear.

Re: Leaf Springs

If you're looking for an upgrade try Deaver springs. They are pricier but offer a better ride.
