  • Showing how I restore my original 1955, 1956, and 1957 Chevrolet car leaf springs. I put in a ton of information if you are looking to rebuild yours on the cheap. If you have the spare cash, buy new ones. I don't so driveway rebuild is my only option

    This is content I have been looking for. And yes, absolutely, whatever those clamps are are loose on my car. I certainly understand these much better after watching you video. Those Eaton leaf spring sure are $$.

      Thomas, I was excited about this video because it's my first multi videos put together (edited). Thank you for always watching

    I have four parts houses right here in town and not a single one had in stock or had a eta on a fuel pump for my 86 c10 with the 4.3. I had to order from summit too. I like that routing of the rear brake line, for sure beats the up and around routing.

    When pressing in the new front leaf spring bushing to you press from outside of spring in, or inside going out? Does it matter?

    Good luck on the Fiat pump. Had a lot of stuff this year that's just not available.

    Hey Robert! I can't get the upper rear bushings out of my 55 leaf spring bracket. The body is still on the chassis. Do you have any good recommendation on how to remove it?

      Remove body from chassis. Lol. Just kidding. I'm not sure. Can you get a stumpy flat blade screw driver in there enough to hit it with the palm of your hand?

      @@haffrods7055 That’s a good possibility. The problem is that I don’t think they have ever been changed, so they are quite hard. I’m scheming over here, trying to see what can be done.

      If you have an angled drill, you could drill them out. @@colbygardner
