Speedway Motors Leaf Spring Liner with Lip 2-1/4 Inch Wide Black Poly Leaf Spring Insert 20 Foot Roll Reduces Interleaf Friction for Smoother Quieter Ride

I am restoring a 1969 Chevy C10 Long Bed 2WD Pick-up Truck. It has a leaf spring rear suspension. I want to ensure it rides as smooth and quiet as possible for a truck of its age. I had never rebuilt leaf springs before and I had never installed leaf spring liners. It was pretty straight-forward. I did it on my own but having a person there to help would speed things along for sure. I would recommend these liners but you'll need to have a gasket punch tool around to cut a clean hole for the center bolt to run through. Using a clean gasket hole punch will help to prevent tearing of the liners later on "Down the road." For my application. The 20 foot long roll was just barely short of exactly how much I needed. I made it work but ideally I'd have had 1 more foot of material. Trimming was easy. I used a sharp, high quality pair of scissors (Zwilling brand, Germany) and got very clean, straight lines with each cut. The spings I was refurbishing were 2.25" wide so that is the size width of liners I bought. They fit great. See photos. These liners are a much better option vs using grease between leafs because these won't attract dirt and grime like grease will and these don't need to be lubricated time and time again either the way grease would. Due to my running short on liner material, the longest leafs on one side of my two leaf springs didn't quite reach full coverage (see the last of my uploaded photos) but the thickness of the liner material (0.0625") seems to still keep the longest and the 2nd longest leafs from making contact with each other so I think I'm good to go.

Real easy to install. Added little glue to make it stayed in place. Worked great under my leaf spring

I had to trim off the edges to get the transverse leaf spring to settle back into the cross member of the frame.
