Dal3 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 It's a stock 89 Pioneer 5 peed 4.OL. Google Gemini says only 1986-'92 Comanche springs fit. I just want to get the truck going and not upgrade anything. I'd change only the broken leaf if I could. I'm in Bloomington Indiana and looking for parts. I plan to call local wrecking yards Monday. Are all OEM spec springs compatible? Mine have 3 leaves. The center leaf is broken on the passenger side. Thanks, Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghetdjc320 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 There is a time/cost calculation to consider here. A new set of springs from rock auto (need to be replaced in pairs) will cost about $350ish. You can try to find a used pack but they are hard to find in good shape. Repairing the pack can be difficult as they tend to be seized and rusted together.

Dal3 Posted August 17 Author Share Posted August 17 I've studied the leaf spring assembly on my truck again and it actually has 4 leafs. The broken leaf is second from the to, ust below the frame mount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I’d just buy new springs too. Old springs might not have sagged at the same rate and your time has value too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvagedcircuit Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 You can always sell your old leaf springs, some people like to rebuild theirs bigger or use them as helper leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dal3 Posted August 17 Author Share Posted August 17 OP>watchamakalit I'm in Bloomington and unable travel. Seems these would be hard to ship too. What price though? Thanks, Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchamakalit Posted Sunday at 11:15 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:15 PM Not really interested in trying to ship. Price would be reasonable if picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dal3>watchamakalit I could try to find a shipper using shiply.com. What would be the price if picked up? Nearest I-69 exit? Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way we can exchange private messages on this site? The services are asking for detailed information about the pickup site. My guess is dealing with it will be too much trouble for a couple of springs. Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
