Ok, we all know they can limit articulation.. but what to replace with? Need something to help keep the leafs in line I seem to remember seeing a clamp, that was designed to allow the springs to move vertically .. Had like two long straps and two bolts with spacers that would allow the fasteners to be tight but place no force against the leaf it self. This left the leafs free to separate and move vertical, but kept them in line horizontally. Easy enough to go fab,,, but how would the clamp stay in position? It seems it would be free to move the length of the spring...hmmm unless it was attached somehow to the bottom spring......
