DAVE,
I AM JUST STARTING TO RESTORE A TR4 .  I HAVE A SET OF REAR LEAF SPRINGS WITH
QUITE A SUBSTANTIAL BOW IN IT, WHICH CAME FROM A FRAME THAT HAD THE SPACERS.
 THE SPRINGS THAT I USED WERE QUITE A BIT FLATTER AND FIT ON THE FRAME WITH
LITTLE PROBLEM.  I  THINK IF YOU HAVE THE FLATTER SPRINGS, YOU WILL EITHER
HAVE TO OBTAIN THE CURVED SPRINGS, OR ELIMINATE THE SPACERS AND MOUNT THE
SHOCKS UNDER THE SPRINGS.  I CAN'T SEE WHERE THE MOUNTING SPACING ON THE TWO
FRAMES IS DIFFERENT.  SO I THINK YOU HAVE TO MATCH THE SPRINGS WITH YOUR
SPACER.

GOOD LUCK
 JIM
