I tried various sources but it appears the little pads used in the Roadster leaf springs use are unique. Soooooo, I made my own from some round stock of red polyurethane. Have a look at my 1965 SP310

My car came with what appears to be a "lift" kit attached to the rear of the leaf springs. It is a shackle that probably raises the car about 2". I don't know if I like or dislike this. One positive
