I just installed new Leaf Springs on a 1986 FJ60. I did not put this plate on the top and the rubber on the bottom when I installed new springs. Should I have done this. Or dose it matter if I don't do this. The springs are old man emu.

I'm relatively new Landcrusier owner. I'm learning about the wonderful world of rolling restoration, maintenance and stuffing mitts full of $100 bills into my BJ to fix things. Still love it. Just installed an OME suspension system and now see that my 81 BJ42 frame plates where my rear spring...

I need to get some new rear leaf springs. The current ones are 43" long 19.5" from front to mid and then 23.5" from rear to mid. Problem is they are older and since i put the new engine in i am getting crazy axle wrap which has broken/loosened the c clamps for the springs. See exhibit A and B...

I need to weld some new spring plates on my doffs as the centre pin holes are ovals out. Can any tell me what the pin diameter is? Stupidly I cannot measure off my springs as I got rid of them. I suspect that the hole should be 19mm diameter?

I noticed a my passenger side front leaf spring stack has shifted - springs have moved so a couple of longer leafs are net stacked straight. I get an occasional clunk from the front leafs when cornering, and that got me looking at the springs. I have tapped them into alignment, but they will...

I am trying to figure out what sort of suspension lift I have on my '78. I believe it was set up with a very sturdy/stiff suspension, and since I am 95% on road driving, I would really like to soften it up. I don't know a lot about suspensions, but I know I have seen 3/4 ton trucks with...

looking for a set of rear leaf springs for a 76 fj40. I have a broken leaf in one.

I apologize in advance if this has been asked/answered in a separate thread. I'm new to the group and new to Land Cruisers, owned a few Jeeps over the years. My question is the previous owner did a 5 1/2 inch spring over axle lift on my 81 FJ60 and kept the stock springs. He also added custom...
