Addding an extra Leaf

Post by **Baba** » 28 Jul 2008 02:18 am

Hi guys,

Has anyone tried adding an extra leaf or 2 on the rear?

If so where did you get them from and how much do they cost?

Thanks

Baba

HI Baba,
I have added an extra spring to the rear of my 360. It made the suspension much harder and also let me lower it. I had both the spring and the installation professionally done by someone in australia who specialises in leaf springs. Makes the back end much stiffer and if anything increases traction but also the possiblilty of power oversteer. Twice in the last few days I have been exiting a roundabout and accidently flicked the back end out as I applied power.

Hi mate,

Do you know what leaf it was? What car was it from?

Thanks.

You can use a leaf from another 300. Seen that done before.
