I might be needing a pair of leaf springs as the it appears my drivers side one has gone weak.
Anyone got any and how much am i looking at ?

Re-tempering no good Sven? I was gonna get a set of GLT leaves that I bought from FJ done. Know anywhere worthwhile?
Can imagine new springs costing about £300! ? :lol:

I've heard of retempering but not seen it in action,can't be a bad thing I'd suppose.

These might be able to price new ones...............

i got quoted somewhere around £200 each leaf, for some uprated leafs, by a company in london. I'm simply going to double up my leafs :)

Thanks for advise guys turns out the springs are fine I've now found the axle is bent by quite a large amount ! It's got loads of negative camber, been pushed up and has massive toe in on the drivers side, so need one of them now
