Tech Question - 1969 Camaro Mono to Multi Leaf Conversion

Mike,

I have a 69 Camaro coupe with monoleaf rear springs.

Would like to convert them over to 4 leaf springs and would like to know if your conversion kit will work and not have any gaps in-between the shock plate and the spring perch ?

And does it require the rubber pads?

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,

Because the 4 leaf spring uses a centerbolt to hold the leaves together and the axle spring seat does not have a hole to accept the center bolt head, the top rubber axle pad is replaced with a steel plate. The bottom axle pad is still required.

Because the 4 leaf spring is thicker than the mono leaf, there will be a gap between the shock plate and the top spring seat, but this is not a problem.
