Default LSUG (tm)

Well, the time has come for the ORIGINAL GROUP (tm) that being LSUG (Tm) (LEAF SPRING USERS GROUP (tm)) to step forward and be counted. Membership requires only that you have your REAR AXLE (tm) supported by LEAF SPRINGS (tm).

I will start with me.

Another one here.... and I know exactly why Dave isn't mentioning the fairlane in his sig... I used to own it!

Lets just say that when the lawn has begun growing on the drivers side floor, you keep that car a secret.
