RPU gets a new spring

I replaced the broken monoleaf with a new stacked spring with teflon buttons. I am hoping the stacked spring will handle the road bumps better...or at least won't break in half. The new spring was the same thickness as the mono and the spacers, the ride height should be the same.
While I was under the car I also cut off two rings on the rear frame rubber snubbers, this should give me more rear suspension travel. A quick trip to town and it all feels good, the ride is better than before...front and rear. It only tool 10,000 miles to "tune" it up...LOL. Tuesday we leave for Salina, KS in the purple 50 Buick to attend the Leadsled Spactacular.....be sure to check in, should be a good time
