Les Andrews red book talks about how to re arch each front spring leaf by hand in a vice. Seems like a good idea.

Les's book also shows the relaxed assembled spring length and height.

Does any one have a chart showing the individual spring leaf lengths, so when you are working on a particular leaf, you will know when it has the right arch?

Better ways? Thank you!
