[quote=ericweller]One thing you need to watch for when getting new leaf springs and a new axle. The leaf springs usually have a big rivet right in the middle of the spring right where the axle attaches. You can either get your axle drilled to accept the rivet or you can use large washers as shims to make the leaf springs fit flat to the axle. I tried drilling mine but it was a lot tougher than I thought and was going to remove the galvanized finish. I ended up opting for the washer method although the drilling method would be more stable. See if the company you purchase your axle from can provide either shims or machine the axle to accept the rivet if you have one.[/quote]
