Got my 2 sets of 55 rear springs blasted and coated with Eastwood Rust Encapsulater (formerly Corroless). I have some SLIP PLATE No.1 coming next week for a nice slippery paint job and they get reassembled. The set of springs on the left will be my fronts and have the long leaves from a set of 40 series fronts that will be cut to fit between the 4th and 5th 55 leaves!
Thanks Woody and Polarweasal for the advice and tips!!

Don't worry, Pin Head, they'll be dark gray when he gets that Slip Plate on them.
...Just make sure you paint the ends, too, Sean, or Charlie will be right! :flipoff2:

No problem. At the rate I'm going, your rig will be trail-worthy before mine will be! :D
Must be something to do with all that time off you're taking. Now git back to work before you forget how to fly, and your boss can't remember what you look like or what you're good for! :flipoff2: :flipoff2: :flipoff2:
