Doug,
If it
were not for people asking us questions we would be out of business. The
question we most like to answer is "Can I buy some springs?"
But we
also answer other questions, like yours.
2 things
come to mind about the wiggle:
1st - How
tight were the u-joints on the driveshaft? The correct way to tighten
them is to slowly turn the nuts until the lock washer goes flat, then
turn 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn more, 14 to 17 ft./Lbs. max. Anything more
than this will distort the bearings. If yours were tightened more than
this, replace them, the bearing cups are distorted.
2nd - The
suspension bushings, both front and rear. They were unloaded and then
reloaded during the engine swap. This could have allowed them to take a
different position and if they had excess wear, the looseness could be
showing in the wiggle.
Unless
extensive modifications were made to the frame, I see no reason why you
could not go back to leaf springs.
Yes, you
can buy both the springs and attaching hardware here.
To find the
proper spring for your vehicle, go to our
Tri Five Application
Guide
The correct
springs do vary by body style and duty.
You can
order online here, or call/fax/email.
