Default Re: rear spring lengths

I have 69 with mono leaf looking at replacing with 5 leaf multi-pack with overload leaf (thanks again to Michael for donation [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) - will this help the tremendous amount of roll experienced when cornering or do I need to look for solutoion elsewhere? New shocks? Any suggestions. [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Just the overload will help - but adding the 5 leaf will really stiffen it up...may not need the overload depending what you haul in the Jeepster. I too have the mono leaf and added a overload type spring and have no problem with excess sway....but I do feel the speed bumps a tad more.

I have a Comanche pickup and some springs from the rear of a J-10 truck that are the exact same length and width, just the center bolt is in the wrong place.
A good truck spring shop could help you out if no one else around you has any stock replacements for you.
