Hi Dave=2C
=20
About one year ago=2C I spoke to a US Moss salesperson prior to purchasing =
new rear leaf springs for my phase-2 BJ8=3B unbelievably he recommended I s=
ource from elsewhere=2C which I did.
=20
I purchased a very nice set of rear leaf springs from Denis Welch Motorspor=
t in the UK www.bighealey.co.uk
=20
Denis Welch Motorsport have rear leaf springs made for the 'BJ8 late'. Thes=
e are manufactured specifically for Denis Welch Motorsport=2C in the UK.=20
=20
Only approximately 600 miles driven since I installed them=2C but no issues=
 to report.
=20
I'm very happy with the way they fitted without problems=2C that they did n=
ot raise the rear of the vehicle too high=2C and the improvement in handlin=
g.

Cheers=2C Graham Wilkie.

Hi All=2C
Thanks to those who responded to my question on a replacement U-bolt plate.=
=20
 What's the latest consensus on new rear springs for a phase-2 BJ8? I was g=
oing to reuse my old springs in my restoration=2C but when sitting on a fla=
t surface the two springs are about 0.470" different in height. Are the Mos=
s springs good quality? Is there more than one aftermarket manufacturer of =
replacements?
Thanks very much=2C
