Title: Re: landrum or afco leaf springs? Post by imracin68j on 01/31/11 at 9:06pm Most of the guys are running Landrums. a few may use afco here and there but the majority are on Landrums. I like the Landrums because the clamps are steel, not a hose clamp. |

Title: Re: landrum or afco leaf springs? Post by Chad_E._Jeffreys on 02/02/11 at 10:13pm The clamps are far better, but AFCO springs overall makes a better product. They hold their arch way longer and are more consistant than the Landrums. Also, no spring is perfect, to really get your moneys worth, take them apart and roll graphite on each leaf, then re-assyble them. This is alot of work but the details will pay in consistancy.
