Broken leaf

[STIFFLER]

I noticed that my right front (top) leaf is broken.. someone before me put a add-a-leaf kit on it.. is there somewhere in canada that I can get a new leaf?

Thanks

Usualy, when the top one are broken... you better chance all the leaf spring.

All suspension shop can make that for you.

BTW, several other people can talk more about that... but the add-a-leaf put stress on the other leaf.. so that make sometime problem

why do you say the add-a-leaf causes more stress on the remainder of the leaves?

OK, maybe I realy don't know what I'm talking about... but...

The first time I plan to put add-a-leaf in my spring pack. 3 of 4 suspension shop tell me add-a-leaf is not recommended... because it not work tha same as the other leafs in the leaf spring. It's stress the leaf at each end of the add-a-leaf.

(when I talk about add-a-leaf, it's the thick - firm one like rancho...)

I was tinking that kind of element was the broken leaf reason...

So tell me I'm right or not ?

Anyway, your answer will help me to

The Kal-Tire suspension shops can get any leaf in any shape that you may want. I got mine rearched there and I am thinking about getting new packs for the back there. They even do the military wrapping.

the add-a-leaf actually takes the strain and rearchs the rest to the desired curvature. the strain is actually on the add-a-leaf and takes the srain off the original springs... that is why the rancho add-a-leaf usually needs replaceing after a couple 3 years of use...
