Thanks all for the responses. Yes, Chuck Sea/Tac, that's exactly what the issue was. There was no way to even remove the spring assy from the vehicle without taking the center bolt nut off. With the spring in the cross member, there was no way to put clamps on all of it. I know this isn't correct but, why would someone put it together this way? I suspected it was the wrong spring and thus, too big. I do have a rumble seat. Maybe that explains the 10 leaf. If I want to continue using the 10 leaf, will it fit if installed the correct way or will there be interference somewhere??
