hey :)

I'm after some longer leaf springs for a sierra and heard jackaroo ones were good. I need something 44" ish long and 50-60mm wide.

Also centered pin.

Which model Jackaroo ones are they talking about :?:

Thanks :cool:

youd be looking for pre 92 models as they have coils

and i ran the tape over the leaves in the rear of my 99 rodeo they are roughly about 48inch long and 55mm wide may be of interest :D

I just measured my Rodeo leafs (which are on the garage floor) 1105mm eye to eye. I have ~'89 Jackaroo springs in my 1997 Rodeo. Gave 25mm lift and much softer ride. The Rodeo and Jack springs measured the same eye to eye when I had them on the garage floor.

60mm wide too.

Sorry about the late reply..........I was out camping and 4wding :-)~

Utemad thanks :) Trade a carton of coldies for those leafs if they're homeless ;)

I'll hold on to them for now. Should be selling the ute at the end of this year so the next owner might want to have the load capacity back.

Thanks for the offer.
