I'm replacing original leaf springs, 1952 M38A1. Replacing with 12 leaf front, 13 leaf rear. Will the parts kit work? I don't need the springs. Can you delete them form order and reduce price accordingly?

I have a 52, CJ3A, with the CJ#B engine and a winter cab. It has 10 and 9 leaf spring set in it now. The heavier spring were installed before I purchased it. Will this spring kit fit?

i have a 1952 M38A1 that the previous owner modified to a 350 sbc with a th350 transmission and Warn Overdrive. The front end has 10 leafs and the back 9 leafs. I am runnin 33" tires and i think it has a 2.5" lift can I replace the suspension using your kit? Also because of the gearing, I would like to go with 35" tires. will this work?
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
35" tires are pretty tall but I think you will clear. The problem you may run into with tires that size is rubbing on the frame rail on your turn radius with out wheel spacers.

I want to take my 1954 M38A1 and flip the Leaf Springs from the bottom to the top to give the Jeep a lift of 3 or 4 inches (Guess). If i want to do this, will i run into any other issues that i should be concerned with. Usually with these kind of alterations, there is something i wish i had know before that would have changed my mind. Thanks for any thoughts you have.
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
You will have driveline issues and steering issues. Both will have heavily modified due to the lift. I honestly don't recommend it due to narrow wheel base and combination of high center of gravity.

Our 1954 M38A1 has 12 front and 13 back springs? Is this original? What should it have? They need to be replaced.
Willys Tech:
That is right. The kits we sell now will have 10 in the front and 9 in the rear for a bettter ride.
