1941 Cadillac leaf spring fabric.


Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever found the fabric that goes between the leaves on these springs? I'm going to have the spring shackle bushings replaced and while the spring shop has the springs off I'd like them to replace that fabric if I can find it. They say that in 47 years of owning this shop they have never come across that fabric.

On my 1940 Lasalle I used "Poly Slide" sold by Restoration Supply. www.restorationstuff.com. On page 47 of their catalog. It is a plastic modern replacement. The original spring liner on my car was wax impregnated cardboard/fabric? that is not reproduced. If you google "leaf  spring liner" other brands and versions of the same stuff come up.
