On the way to Conclave, I broke the upper leaf of my right rear spring. Since the car already had a 1" sag to the driver's side, I guess it's time to replace the rear springs. Moss has a suspension

I bet you will probably shear a couple of the u bolts, and I would change them all, I would also get new rear shackle bolts and new front half moon bolts as you may end up grinding or cutting out. A

On the BJ8, when adding new springs, you will find they sit pretty high. IMO, that is an "ugly" look. When I bough my new springs about 10 years ago, I had then pre-sprung about 25% by a local commer

Steve, I also dislike the BJ8 'ugly' look. So I lowered my car by having simple blocks made and inserted between the spring and axle. Drops the car by the thickness of the block - easy. You have my p

I don't know about suppliers but here are a few points to watch out for when changing rear springs. If it is a long time since these were removed then the front pins may well be stuck solid in the s

If available it may be worth to replace the springs with parabolics (single leaf), usually slightly softer but no corrosion or wear between the leaves. Replace all pins, bolts, nuts, bushes, U-clamps
