The eye(round ends of the main spring, that the bushing goes in), leafs, center bolt and rebound clips.
Attaching a leaf spring to a chassis
A set of leaf spring that is so mounted that it is at right angles to the length of the Vehicle is known as the transverse leaf spring.
The bushings are pressed into the eye of the leaf spring on each end. The leaf spring should be removed and the old bushing pressed out on a shop press then press a new bushing pressed back in. In the old days I used to burn the old rubber out of the bushing then chisel out what is left.
