Okay, it's not so advanced, but $7 in steel is much better than paying $80 for them new.

(oops, forgot I still have to drill the holes for the center pin on the leafs... oh, well)

So I guess cutting, drilling, and grinding 3/8" plate isn't "advanced" enough for for fabrication forum. :dunno: :confused:
Fab? yes.
Advanced fab? no.
 
I used some spare u-bolt plates I picked up off the ground (stock xj leaf spring plates) cut of the corner nearest the shock so it wouldn't make contact. removed the two inner leaf spring bolts added the spring plates and bolted it together. Work fine and was free.`

Maybe you could take some pics and show every one how easy it is. I'm always to lazy to take pics.

Whoops, sorry. They should be there now. I have them hosted on my Linux server at home and had the power off while I wired in a 220 line for the garage. Fun with electricity! :cheers:
 
Here's mine I made, free. Scrap from work.
