[TR] TR3 Leaf Springs

[Andrew Uprichard]

If know your "friend in Vermont" he doesn't carry new parts.  So are you
thinking of getting a used one ?  

Personally, I'd spring (sorry about the pun) for new ones - and I'd get a
pair as the other side is likely to be worn / saggy / whatever.

I just bought a pair from Albert at TRF - and I thought he was reasonably
priced.

On acceleration this week, I heard a loud snapping pop from the rear
passenger side.  Investigation shows broken leaf spring.  Quite the sag on
that side!  Anyway, I can source a spring from my friend in Vermont.  But
question first.

When replacing leaf springs on one side with used, is there a reason why you
should do it on both sides?  I can't think of one.

Thanks, everyone,
Terry
