rear leaf springs
The rear springs on my 53 M38 have flattened out a huge amount ,I guess after 50 years that can be expected. Would anyone know the proper angle or measurement from the center bolt to correct this problem. thanks Lake

If you take them to a spring shop they can re-arch them. If they don't have specs for that early a spring, give them the eye to eye dimensions (42") from your TM.
