I need to know how long a mighty boy rear leaf spring is eye to eye?

Anyone?

I'll try and measure a spare set tomorrow, but if you're looking for custom made springs, Lovells in Sydney should already have the info because they have made a lowered set for a member on here.

Oh right, so you need single MB leafs. Didn't get a chance to measure my spares today sorry.

You might want to know that Hatch models have 3 pack leaf springs too. ;)

They are supposed to be, and i've got a set of hatch 3 leaf springs awaiting me to clean them up, paint them, fit my new nolethane bushes & stick into my mighty boy, but i have to wait until i get some new shockers & do the whole rear end at once.

Cheers

Toranaguy: You couldn't measure the length of them for me could you?

Hi,
Just finished parting out number One MB, starting on number 2 on the weekend.

940mm eye to eye
