Posies Super Slide Springs 1009 Details

POSIES Super Slide Springs feature a domed pocket at the end of each spring leaf which houses a moly-nylon button. The buttons reduce friction between the springs leaves resulting in a smooth comfortable ride. 

This custom application spring is used when the good looks of a 1937-41 axle is installed in an earlier spring over chassis. This moves the stock 37-41 spring mounting from in front to over the axle.  This is an old trick to lower your Model A, also updating to 37-41 spindles that allow hydraulic brake to be installed as well! A more traditional and trick way to drop your Model A with an original Ford axle, as opposed to an obvious aftermarket dropped axle.

*For 1937-41 ford axles in spring over arrangement only
*Reversed eye, 33.5" spring

Overall Assessment

The product has been praised for its quality, fit, and finish, making it a great addition to various projects like hot rod and ratrod builds. Many users found it easy to install, and it served as an efficient way to repurpose an original front end. Several customers recommended it over competitor products such as Speedway, due to its performance and value for money. However, some customers noted minor imperfections that would require some work, but overall, users recognized the product's strength and functionality. The wider 40 axle spring for the Model A was particularly appreciated.

This was a good quality leaf spring.

This spring would have been highly functional had I measured correctly. The quality was good for a leaf spring; however, if you want a show quality item you will have to spend some time with a grinder. The shears at the ends of the leaves could use some dressing up.

I would not buy again

Lower main spring is narrower than the rest by almost 1/8" ...spring was full of slag and had to be taken apart and cleaned and sanded where the pucks are...I would return but I painted it...just buy the speedway brands and save the money and headache

We needed a new spring for our daily driven 28 Ford. It has the wider 40 axle which calls for the special spring and Speedway had it in stock and shipped it right out to get the Roadster back in the riad
