Topic: 64.5 Leaf Springs

Question regarding leaf springs for a 64.5, would the correct part number be C4ZA-5556-B?

Would appreciate a pic if someone has them...

Depends on the application (body style, engine size, AC- non AC ......) Likely 8-12 different springs used during most years and time periods

Jeff, in my case it's a Dearborn convertible 289 non-AC, hope that helps narrow it down, somewhere over time they've been replaced : (
Is it just the bottom spring I'd need with the part number, there's a couple floating around on eBay...

[DM_1964]

anyone else have any leaf spring part number knowledge that would suit a Dearborn 64 1/2 D-code convertible, non A/C

Found the following chart if that helps others...

Not sure where you found the chart - lots of other springs missing from that mix. Thing it was likely assembled off a MPC which showed what springs were available at time of publication after applications were combined to reduce inventory needs

Just though I would mention it

Hey Jeff, I found it on a website whilst googling trying to find some leaf spring information that would help me in my quest, there's not much out there, it's all about reproduction springs these days...
Is it worth following what's written in the MPC or be happy if I can find anything within a date range prior to the scheduled build?

Guess your limited to those resources currently. I would guess that your likely (with a date code prior to your car's date) going to find that they are -B's or -D's but it will be interesting


Good luck with your search
