I've posted on this before, but I am now ready to take action on this project. I am looking at replacing the leaf springs on my 68 'vert. I'm a fairly handy guy but I don't have any mechanical experience. Is this a job a should tackle or should I just bring it to a shop? There are 4 leafs. Should I be looking at purchasing a certain style or brand? I am told that I should use polyurethane bushings and possibly add a sway bar. There is a placed called RPM Auto Parts in Saskatoon Canada that sells the parts. RPM is about 500 miles from me, I am in Winnipeg Canada. Does anyone know if there is a place closer to me that sells parts. I bought a boot cover from RPM and it fit and looks great. RPM says the leaf springs would cost $299 (set), bushings $120 (set), sway bar $300.00 (depending on size). Thoughts?
Also, my steering wheel is cracked pretty bad at the center part. RPM says they can't get an original. The one I have is all black (hard material, plastic?) Can I get an original somewhere? Cost?
