Leaf spring question for 1975 CJ: would these fit?

My 75 Cj5 needs new springs and shackles.

I saw this ad on CL http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/cto/908568989.html

Anyone know if that would work? See any potential problems (other than the potential for missing parts).

Thanks

 

the flatfender springs, front and rear, are shorter in length.
I'd measure yours, eye to eye, and ask him the same about his.
seems to be confused for some reason
I can't read his meaurements in his pic.

 

I guess I don't see the reason to replace your used springs and shackles with other USED springs!! Why not go with new springs??

 

Indeed - buy new unless you are really short of cash.

I certainly would not buy them without accurate measurements. The seller says they came off a M38 and will fit a CJ-5 ... that's a contradiction unless the M38 was modified to use CJ-5 springs.

 

Because they're going on a POS. Can't justify spending the value of the vehicle on replacement springs and shackles.

My back shackles are toast. I suspect that once the springs come off they will need replacement too -- god knows what's holding them together right now R)

 

Never mind....
