MILO Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 i have a '93 full size blazer and i need to replace the rear leaf springs. dealer wants roughly $450 per side, and the only aftermarket stuff i can find is suspension lift kits, most of which don't include the complete leaf spring set, and they cost so damn much for ones that do. i'm just lookin to fix it, not turn it into an offroad monster. stock equivalent would be fine, but i cannot find that anywhere. anybody know of any sites to check out, besides 4wheelparts.com, jcwhitney, etc... i don't want to hit up the junk yards either. thanks.

racer Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 hit up deaver. they make leaf packs for everything. i dunno their website, but i dont think it will be hard to find. Quote
theeechozen1 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 deaver makes killer springs for about 5 hundo a set National makes good springs as well Alcan makes alot of Yota springs, but I'm sure they could make you a set for your rig. any of these companies can make you stock ride height springs for about $4-500.00, and they can make em to your spec, soft for off road or stiff for towing and loads. good luck!

. Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 whats wrong with the leaf pack? Did it get a heavy load on it one to many times? A quick cheap fix for now would be an add a leaf Quote
superchicken Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 some good spring shops can re arch springs.i had a pair done on an old 69 superbee i had.rode like a dream after that Quote
MILO Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Posted May 5, 2005 i'm not really sure what caused it but each side is cracked around the eye, one side in the front, and the other side in the rear. i've towed my trailer with 3 quads on it before, but that's the worst load i've put on it. i was in a wreck towing the trailer last summer with 2 on, but i didn't think that would crack the spring eyes. it was only ft end damage that i knew of, and nothing major. i'll do some more searching here with your suggestions. thanks.

NEVER SATISFIED Posted May 5, 2005 Report Posted May 5, 2005 you can have your spring fixed... half the cost of new ones.. call a semi place that deals with em and they can point you inthe right direction... we build lift kits and custom shiat from 2" to 30" and we sometimes get leafs that are damaged from customers, we send em out and get them fixed.
