I shim up the rear springs with nylon sheet.  I cut a square about 
1/4" thick the width of the spring leaf, drill a hole in the centre of 
it.
        Then I put a bolt through the hole, and chuch it in a lathe, 
and machine down most of the square, leaving a circle raised in the 
centre.  I think It's about 3/4" diameter. This fits up into the dimple 
at the ends of each spring leaf.  Been driving on these for 6 years.
Cheers, Fred
