Rob,
They do a pretty good job of de arching themselves all by themselves. A spring
that has some years on it carrying two up and luggage is probably a prime
candidate. Spring shops will usually laugh you out the door if you ask them to
RE arch an English leaf spring, but should be willing to de arch. If you have a
big enough oven, flatted it to the desired height in a device that will hold it
there and bake it. Not certain but 400 degrees F should do it. Allow it to cool
and it should stay where you set it.
