You may have a set of reproduction springs.  For a while CAT and other
manufacturers including myself built springs with the small eye up front.
There were no large eye bushings to be found.  In order to replace the
bushings for the front you use the rear bushing but machine the bushing
(metal) .210" to fit the front.

I doubt you have a set of my spings because that particular production run
was done in 2001 and those bushings shouldn't have worn out. Plus that was a
limited production run and I can account for the location of my springs

If you need more help let me know

Subject: [Tigers] front leaf spring bushings


My tiger has small bushings in the front and appear to be the same as the
rear bushings. The parts and
repair manuals show a bigger bushing in the front that also is eccentric,
did they change the design of the front leaf spring during production or is
this
 a set of alpine springs that were replaced at some point in time in my car.
