thanks dude,

the springs came new from the previous owner. they had rob guerra’s business card taped onto them. they seem very nicely done – thicker leaves than the original but the same number. the ride height is nice – about the same as least sagging of my previous springs 🙂

one side of the horizonal shock is attached to the shackle bolt of the front mount of the spring, the other side is attached to plate that the u-bolts go into. i suppose this plate must not be original. speaking of which, where do you guys get new u-bolts? they are smaller than most common sizes and i couldn’t find any in chicago so i ordered some from ‘kansas spring’ with the dimensions i needed.

i figure, the u-bolts should hold the spring tightly so there will not be any load on the little center bolt and any quality allan bolt will suffice.
