Opinions Please.
1947 Dodge Club Coupe.
The new leaf springs I received from Eaton came with new U Bolts.
My old U Bolts came off fine, no thread damage. I have cleaned them, bead blasted them, and painted with Por-15.
Should I use the original sets to maintain as much " stock " as I can ?
OR, are they presumed to be weakened in some way after 68 years and go with the new bolts ?
( Original Bolts have the flattened tops , see photos )
Thanks !
