Need some info on replacing my leaf springs on my Belvedere.

[pappabear71]

Hi all! New here. Have owned a few Mopars in my time but never got into the nitty gritty of them, so to speak. i recently purchased a 64 Belvedere 4 door and I need tons of help and advice but, right now, I need some help with rplacing my leaf springs. OK, here I go. My leaf springs are, to put it mildly, SHOT! I went to my local salvage yard and got a good set of used ones but, want to replace all the bushings and hangars but, dont know what I need. I have not been under the car yet so have not had a chance to see what I need, It's COLD here in North dakota and I don't have a garage. Does my car have shackles and where can I find the front bushings? i have found the rear bushings but no luck on the fronts. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

Actually, none of those sites show the FRONT bushings, just the rears. I just emailed ESPO Springs n Things about the same items for my 63. I'm sure they're gone for the holidays but I'll let you know what I find out.

I replaced the bushings on mine with Energy Suspension (I got a complete car kit) and it took some doing on the rear because the sleeve needs to come out (at least for ES it does) and took me about an afternoon. But it was a piece of cake to do, I still had all the original parts in the car, and the bushings were tough, but persuasion and a couple of beers got me through it.

Okay, ESPO carries them either in rubber or poly. $26.00 a pair. These are the FRONT spring eye bushings. I have been looking for a long time and never saw them on the other sites. No problem getting the rear bushings, as they all show those.

UPDATE: Ordered mine today. Thank you Laura. BTW, these are to replace the aluminum ones in my Calvert Mono Springs. Too much noise on the street. I'm going to poly and will drill the eye for a couple of zerks.
