I posted earlier about M37 springs, and got the correct arch for the front springs. I would really like to know the original arch for the rear springs if anyone has it.
I have 2 sets of 11 leaf springs, and they are all within 1/4" of each other. A friend has offered me a rear spring that has about 2 1/2" more arch than these. I need to know if the 2 sets I have are clapped out or not.
Thanks,
Tim

I have about the same question.
As the truck sits fully assembled and on the ground with good springs, how large should the gap be between the axels and rubber bumpers?
