I need a couple short leaves to add to my front (52") spring packs. I want to stiffen them up just a bit. Let me know what you have.

Short Leaves

How wide are they? I'm scraping out an S10 Blazer and could pull the springs appart.
2.5"
I have some 52's from a Colorado, how long/short of a leaf do you want?
Prolly the shortest one from each pack. I'd like to add one under my current 52" packs. My shortest leaf now is about 32" long.
OK, I can get them mon morning (they're at work) and check the lengths. I may be able to get them tomorrow though.
Are you still using your quad shock brackets?

Still am. 
I hope to swap the new front axle and suspension in over Memorial Day, then I can start fabbing the new upper shock mounts. So I should be done with them by late 2012.
I still have them mentally set aside for you, but dang it is hard to make time for the build right now.

Sorry, the leaves I have aren't short enough. The short ones were still around 36 or 37 inches long.
Thanks anyway. 
the bottom leaves on my old stock 76 k5 springs are about 33". There's also the overload under that which is shorter. Does $20 plus shipping from business zip 76051 sound about right if that's what you need?
Are they in good shape?
Let me take another look at my spring pack. Maybe I'll put them above my smallest leaf (not gonna use an overload).
I could cut them down but that sounds like a major bummer with spring steel.
