Rear Spring Cambers and Leaves

[Ian Williams]

I am not sure that anyone can definitely state, x year = x number of leaves, I have found numerous variations in number of leaves, thickness of leaves including a variation of leaf thicknesses in a single spring. It seems to me it would stand to reason that a heavy saloon would have a higher rate spring than say a lighter Chummy even if they are set to the same camber. Therefore a Saloon spring on a Chummy will settle less than a spring with the right rate fitted to said Chummy and consequently affect the ride height.
