went to the steel yard and picked up a 12' peice of 3/8"x1" cold rolled
steel, actually I think I got hot rolled b/c they didn't have cold on hand.

Cut into 4" peices, and drilled holes near the ends, just far enough apart
to accomodate the width of the leaf springs. Then I clamped 2 per side,
both in front of the axle. I placed each one of the (4 total) clamps at the
point where a single leaf extends away from the spring pack..

That sounded about as clear as mud, I'll try to snag my bro's digicam and
take some pics.
