mvusse Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I'm currently running stock springs and they've held up well so far. But they are built out of the remains of 4 stock packs, 3 of which had broken leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 rust is the enemy. I had a cracked leaf in both packs of my 88 before I started the build. I assembled 2 good packs (with extra main leafs as AALs) out of 4 packs during the build. They survived just fine for the next few years of hard wheeling, rusty though they were. When I had the opportunity, I bought a set of rustfree packs from Florida. Not sure if the Chevy packs will work for you. lots of variables in leaf springs. What particular Chevy are they out of?
