After rebuilding my original '77 FE7 rear spring I'm not happy with the lack of arch under load (it's essentially flat) and one end seems to bend upwards a little like it's fatigued. I have a feeling it's a goner and should be replaced before it breaks and leaves me stranded or worse. I want to stick with an original style steel 2.25" 7 leaf. There's lots of them out there but I've heard there's a type with a 'beefed up' section out at the ends for extra strength at the attach points. Has anyone seen or heard of this style? Looking for a manufacturer or source.
