Gday all,

Im chasing a set of leaf springs for a ute. IF anybody has a set in Sydney it would help me out a heap.

Alternatively what are my options for getting some made up?

do Pedders / KMAC etc do this?

Cheers

Ed

thanks PL,

will try them out.

Im fixing a car which was crashed into a gutter (my stepsons car)... the leaf as a result of impact is now bent (vertically) and im not 100% certain but the wheel is hard up against the leaf and will not budge a mm.. not even when driving in gear.

passenger side wheel sits fwd in the wheel opening compared to the other side.. perhaps as a result of the now shorter spring.

I dont know if the axle is bent or not...

tRX wheel is smashed.

cant say im happy about.. i built this car from the ground up, and just put in a new ATE engine.

anyways.. your help is much appreciated.

Cheers

Ed

I'm pretty sure that I have a couple of sets of sedan rear springs.
Can anyone confirm if they fit on utes?

I'm in Castle Hill.
