> I had leaf springs made for my '55 last May and it really wasn't a big
deal. They had a book, and they were able to look up everything that they
needed to know in order to put the springs togther. I had them done at a
local truck place since they make springs for stuff all the time, but I paid
a premium for the installation, which you actually can do yourself.
