For those who may want to fabricate their own, hand tracings of NOS and used rebound clips.
The dimensions are for 3-leaf and 6-leaf clips for the standard duty front spring, and should only be considered approximate:
NOS clips, made from 3/32" mild steel: part # 116458 - small, for 3-leaves: part # 116460 - large, for 6-leaves Used clips: If you compare the dimensions between the NOS & used clips, you'll see they don't quite reconcile. I haven't yet figured out accurate dimensions for a new, flat piece, but these aren't real precision parts either. The 9-leaf rear spring uses a different "large" clip, to go around 7-leaves. From what I've been able to measure, and dig up on the web, each leaf is @ .210" thick. Add twice this to the length of a 6-leaf clip to get a 7-leaf clip. The heavy-duty 10-leaf front spring clips go around 4 & 8 leaves respectively. Don't have a heavy-duty 11-leaf rear to see what clips are needed. Sean |
