Hi Guys, I want to refurbish my YJ springs and need to replace the little flat spacers at the end of each length of leaf spring. I have read they are teflon??? Think they stop springs rattling and aid flex.
I have searched everywhere inc USA but cannot even find what they are called?
Anyone any ideas please?
Ta!... Geoff

I read somewhere (might have been on here) that you can use cut up plastic 5 Gallon drums?

OK everyone I got the answer on Zukicrawlers and it seems awfully like the answer that Darrel kindly posted up - so to sorta close down this thread here is the link - - maybe we should start a useful links page? Having said that, links quickly go out of date and become useless - so maybe not!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Leaf-Spring-End ... f1&vxp=mtr only trouble is ebay is automatically quoting 43USD to ship them so I have to try and sort that out somehow.
Anyway, thanks everyone for the feedback and help.
