#ProjectSportsRoof Leaf Spring Prep

Thanks for stopping to take a peak at what is going on with #ProjectSportsRoof!!!

My 73 Mustang still has it’s original leaf springs and you can tell they are falling apart and sagging.

Several area were the spring is separating.

After a look at the old springs, not only are they sagging and separating they have been on since May 1, 1973 (only 47 years).   Bolts are pretty rusted.  Take a look:

 


Keep checking back for the leaf spring installation.

Also the look for finishing up the seat upholstery that is coming shortly.

    Not a bad job. On beep beep I had to cut a notch in the u bolts and twist them off. I soaked them in liquid wrench a week before the job. Two of us working did one side at a time and finished in three hours including a break for a sandwich. Excellent upgrade.

Let me hear from you!!! Drop a note!!
