What are the best leaf spring clamps out there to buy? I've only seen them on TxSilverado's truck. I wouldn't even know where to buy them.

There was a guy here on the site that was making those that Stew has on his. But I think he switched jobs and doesn't have access to the CNC anymore.

 

you have caltracks...you dont need spring clamps. auto zone has them for about 8 bux but they arent as purdy as mine.

 

What do the Caltracs have to do with me not needing spring clamps?
The overload spring is just too close to the Caltrac bar.
Some have stated they have come in contact with each other. They state it causes instant loss in traction.
That's why I ask about them.

I used the ones from AutoZone, kind of a pain to get on though because the U bolt wasn't wide enough.

 

im tired of the bolts backing outa my clamps so im thinking about just welding the overload to the rest of my spring pack

 

i got rid of them chits

 

dont heat your springs man... it changes the spring rate terribly and will weaken them. I just took my overload spring off and my truck actuaally rides a little better now.

 

Now you have made your vehicle prone to axle wrap. Danger danger!

 

oh I know... I am building a set of ladder bars for it myself... the load capacity isnt a big deal, thats why I lost the o-load spring and got the bigger converter... once these bars are done, the axle will have NO way to wrap up unless the truck breaks the bars... and I dont make enough power to do that...
