| First ever Leaf sprung Currie Axle
I have had a request from a customer to create leaf mounts for his currie axle, so it will bolt into his TF2 he purchased. So far, this is my solution. I plan on incorperating shock mounts into this bracket also, just have to decide on how to do that still. Let me know what you think. |

As promised, better pictures. I also made up a quick shock mount for the axle. I like how simple it is, so I may go with something like this, so long as the owner likes it I couldn't find a short enough screw for the leaf springs, so that is why one of them has a thin washer on top. It is to keep the screw from hitting the axle housing. |

Every axle should have lead spring mounts - Nice and simple always makes a perfect mount.
