Title: Rear spring insulators
Post by: husumfarmer on 2025-02-01 19:43
Hey Guys after putting my new coils in which I cut 1" to drop 2" I'm sitting just about level so I'm thinking of removing the 1" blocks from the rear but I need new insulator pads  I can find them fo 52-56 but not 57, the dimensions for the 52-56 looks like they would work, if you know a supplier let me know, and if anybody needs some coil springs out of a ranchero that are already cutto 13 1/16" tall, about a 3-4" drop I will give to them, husumfarmer

I got mine at www.classicautoparts.com. Previously known as Obsolete Ford, in Oklahoma City.
I believe about page 88 in their online catalog.


correction: page 89

Concours Parts sells the metal retainers and rubber pads for the rear leafs, they show 52-57 as the same part#. I would think 58-59 would also be the same since they use the same 9" rear end and 2" wide leaf springs.
