Re: [Chrysler300] Rear spring rebuild - 300H

["Charlie Valentine" <cross.ram@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Won't the spring rebuilder in Wausau, WI sell you the needed front bushings, leaf interliners, and the rubber pads for the clips?
Also, are you sure that  that's all your springs need ......... taking them apart and reassembling them with new front bushings, leaf interliners, and the rubber pads for the clips ?  The spring leaves may need to be re-arched to give them the right geometry to make your G sit right.
WHAT is Rearching?
Rearching is a process of re-curving each leaf spring to original or custom specifications. Once the springs are individually rearched they are then heat set. Heat setting is done by heating the spring to a specific tempature for a specific time.

Just some thoughts....happy 300'ing

  Hello, 

  Does anyone know of a source for the front bushings, leaf interliners, and the rubber pads for th
  e clips? NAPA had the shackle bushings. One Mopar source I found on-line only had 66 and later cars. 
  There is a spring rebuilder in Wausau, WI who says they would check and rebuild the springs but I'm inclined to rebuild them myself. My manual shows a special tool to push-in the front bushing but I think I could get by with a makeshift tool. 

  Also, if anyone would like to see a 'poor mans rotisserie' send me an email and I'll email you a picture. It has really been nice for working on the bottom of my H.
