    Working on my project car I came across this. Thought it would have some value on explaining spring construction and spring wrap to some people. Also got me thinking about going back into my spring pack and replicating that front structure for quasi a trailing arm set up. Like putting a poly bushing in the front and adding a half leaf to the front with some spare parts I have around.

    No thoughts on mimicking the quasi trailing arm set up? I thought it might be interesting to try out.
