    So I'd like to replace the front and rear springs on my newly acquired RPU so I did a search but I'm not finding a definitive solution for my preferred approach.
    What I need is a source for complete spring assemblies as I'm planning on retaining the stock axle and mechanical brakes. I understand that the drop won't be significant but that's ok.

  2. I have a '31 Roadster Pickup and use a roadster spring in the rear, works great. Looks better, rides better. If you haven't already, you should also post on fordbarn.com. For a direct link to the Model A forum use: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=3

    Thanks Charlie.
    I was considering roadster reverse eye springs and don't want to start stacking/removing leaves.
    I'm a member there also but sometimes the purists get testy when discussing modification hence the post on here first.
