Model T Ford Forum: Forum 2012: Front Seven Leaf Spring Lengths
Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By Michael J. Wilcox on Tuesday, October 02, 2012 - 03:27 pm:

Can someone please post the lengths of each of the front spring leafs for a 23-25 Touring? I believe I have a seven leaf spring with a couple missing and a couple made from longer springs that were cut off with a torch. Once I know what is required I’ll go from there to find or have new ones made.
Thank You

Have a look here, although there are no individual leaf lengths it might be helpful.

Thanks for the help. Based on the measurements you provided it looks like I need the three smallest leafs and I should have the spring re-arched. I would rather find originals rather than buying new, so I hope I can find them. Any suggestions? I live in Boise, Idaho.
