Need new stock leaf springs, not finding any


Recommended Posts

Has anyone bought new stock height leaf springs lately?

I noticed one of my leafs was really bent up, like an S shape in front.  I have about 7 inches of lift, stock leafs with a spring over in the rear.  I'm surprised they have lasted as long as they have with 35s.   I am not finding them anywhere, except at some obscure sites that I would have to call to see if they really exist.  Not like cherokee where there are loads of them from dorman and the like.

Many have purchased the general springs in KC and they work fine but will lift over stock height. JD Jeeps in CA is where I bought my last set of springs from for my soa. Great used set with no rust

Do you know how much over stock the General Springs lift our trucks?

On my soa it lifted a solid 2” over good used 4x4 springs. Never settled either, I ended up giving those springs away to a Toyota truck guy

Thanks for the info! 

 

Out of curiosity, what kind of Toyota did those springs end up on?

Not sure. Here in Guam they love their mini trucks so I would assume it’s some custom mini truck. Lots of Hilux’s here too

Which leaf is bent? Please post photos of both of your springs, at the front eyes and at the rear eyes.

 

Stock springs in a SOA conversion should not produce 7 inches of lift. Should be closer to 5-1/2 inches.
