This spring job is turnng out to be more expensive than I thought. 275$ plus labor to rebuild my 2 old springs. 150$ & 300$ to install new springs, bushings, shackles & shocks. Eaton wants 400$ for 2 5 leaf springs. Kennedy American wants 129$ per spring. I am going with the set from ESPO for 160$. I already have the new shackles, spring bolts and urathane bushings, that was 91.75$ and the new shocks which were 35$. Looking at this car on the lift yesterday it only has 3 leafs in each spring. I thought the standard spring had 4 and the heavy duty had 5? My other 74 had 4 leafs when it was bought new.
