Listers,
Would someone please explain leaf spring camber to me? The Anderson/Moment
restoration book states that three different rear springs were used on the
100 and that they had different amounts of loaded camber. The first was a
seven leaf spring with 1/4" negative camber. The second also had seven
leaves, but 1/2" positive camber. The final spring had eight leaves and
negative camber. Last paragraph in the first column on page 26 for those
that are playing at home.
Camber is not discussed in the six cylinder section of the book.
Not understanding what camber is with a leaf spring leads me to questions
like: Do the springs have a front and rear end? Apply to after market
springs? How do you measure camber?
Thanks,
Bob
