Rebuilding Deaver Springs

[Pax4d]

I am looking to have my Deavers Rebuilt in hopes of removing or locating the clunk that I have been dealing with for months. Where can I find good isolator pads and bushings for this rebuild? I have tried calling Deaver, but haven't been able to get anyone on the phone, so wanted to reach out to the group for some help. My plan is to take the springs off, take them apart, clean them up, replace pads, bushings and u bolts.

Thanks in advance.

If you're near a large city, you should be able to find a leaf spring shop that caters to 18 wheelers. They'll be able to help.

If these guys aren't local, I bet they can refer you to someone. https://pennysautochassis.com/about us.html

Are you sure it's coming from the deavers? I had a clunk that turned out to be the tailgate step. The passenger side had some play and you could move it back and forth and duplicate the sound just by moving it by hand

My deavers are extremely noisy as well
