How long ago did you have this done, and (if more than a couple of years
ago) how are they holding up? I've been told that re-arched springs
don't hold their shape very long. For about $150 total I can get new
ones from the usual suppliers.
Also, where do you go to have this done? I looked in the Yellow Pages,
under "Re-archers, leaf spring", but I didn't find anything...
Also also, has anybody anywhere at any time given any thought to
developing a rear coil spring conversion kit? Am I stupid for even
suggesting such a beast?
