Re: IML: New, Rear Leaf Springs

[Brad Hogg <luxoliner@xxxxxxx>]

I'd have to say, not if it is done correctly.  To re-arc a spring, the 
spring must be bent well past the correct position and then bent back again 
to the proper arc.  It's hard to explain but it can be very effective if 
done properly.  YMMV

Jim

To re-arc an old spring is the same as a heavy guy who straightens up his
belt.  After a short walk, everything is back to where it was.

Get a set of new Spgs please.
