spring for a 40 ford axle???

i have an axle that i think is from a 40 ford. its 39in from perch boss to perch boss, and with the perches and shackles installed, its 33 1/4 in from shackle to shackle... i'm looking to run the spring over the axle, but all i can find are 31in and 31 1/2in spring widths. would they work? or would it be too "streched"??

any ideas on where to get a spring with a 33in eye to eye measurement?


thanks

 

I'm using a 47 axle with a 50-51 f1 spring over it. If that helps you out.

 

hmmm... are the f-1 leaves all equadistant from the center pin instead of off set?? thats an idea...

 

I built a 1952 willys ace which I put on a 1982 olds floorpan.I put a v6 nailhead oddfire engine in it hooked to a1982 olds 350 trans. in 1966 Evinrude boats put this oddfire motor in there sportman outboards. this car runs like a top.sounds like a straight six spit exhaust

 

check with Vaphead. he got me the spring i was looking for at a fair price.

 

spring????????????????????
