Re: [AMC-list] Fw: leaf spring bolts wanted

["Armand Eshleman" <aje1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Leo,

Recently I replaced many of the components on the rear suspension on the
white 70 Javelin. The front spring eye bolts are defintiely a special bolt.
If you cannot source them from a salvage yard, your best bet may be to go to
your local bolt supplier and buy  bolts of the correct length and thread
size to mimic the ones you had to cut out, then source some metal sleeve
material that will go over the bolt and fit inside the spring bushing
properly. I've found galvanized small sleeve like pieces amongst the many
fastener bins at my local Ace hardware or Farm/Fleet type store.

Good luck,

Armand
