    Replacement leaf springs for M101A1

    Been talking with Piper Cub regarding the one in the classifieds, he only has one available as I mentioned in Post #10. Found a pair on the East Coast and the pictures look the same "rust wise" as the one in the classified so I went with the pair versus one from one place and one from another.

    Replacement leaf springs for M101A1

    Thanks for this, great info there, I had come across the site but didn't see the specs for each. Appears the size is 2.12" so basically 2 1/4" which I found a match online here: http://http://www.stengelbros.net/361-411-UBKT-12X2-14X6-34S-U-bolt-Kit_p_7413.html Appreciate the help!

    Replacement leaf springs for M101A1

    Update I was finally able to remove the leaf springs this weekend. The left leaf spring center bolt was rusted to the axle and ultimately I had to unbolt it get the axle free. Here is the result: The bottom leaf from the left spring is broken in 3 pieces. Also both springs have the same...

    Replacement leaf springs for M101A1

    Yes I have thanks, what's available in the classified may work as a donor spring as it is not exactly the same as what's on my M101.

    Replacement leaf springs for M101A1

    Unfortunately, I had already ordered a new axle hubs etc to work with the old springs before I noticed the damage.

    Have started to rebuild/convert an M101a1 into an off road camping trailer and noticed one of the leaf springs has a couple cracks in it. Does anyone know where to find replacement leaf springs and also is there a civy version of them? I have come across some info that indicates the M37 may...
