    C-1 Leaf Spring

    Could an original grooved leaf spring from a 55-57 passenger car be made to be correct on a Corvette?

    I would say yes, a friend had a spring house modify a pair from a shoebox chevy. Can't tell the difference. They were shortened and re rolled the loops.

      I won't swear to this, but I think there is a slight difference in configuration, with the passenger car springs having a raised rectangular bump at the end of the grooves:






      Also, there's the issue of the part number and date code, which may or may not be covered by the spring plates.
