SPOA Best Spring?
« on: August 24, 2011, 09:56:24 PM »
Currently I have a spoa with stock springs on my 86 sami. I am looking to upgrade the springs and shackles. I am going with heavy duty shackles from petro but torn between what type of leaf springs to get. I am debating between the OME, Calmini, or Bonzeye?

Any advice on which of the three. and if all these springs will work over my axles

I would check out the Bonz Eye from TT.  They are the only spring out of the three designed for SPOA.

That being said, I really wish somebody would make a quality replacement spring with 0" lift for SPOA applications.  Calmini dangled the option out there, but they never bore any fruit.
