Spring clamps
Has anyone used leaf spring clamps on the rear half of the rear leaf springs???
I have heard there is a formula for locating these correctly and also a proper torque/tightness that should be used. Unfortunately, I don't have those details. Does anyone have experience with these...or any more info???
I did ask this in another area but I thought someone here may be more likely to have experience with this.

I was going to order these... http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MRG-1293/
However, I am making my own since my springs are only 2" wide.
Calvert is the person that I heard of that recommends them, too.
I just don't know the exact "formula" he uses for spacing and torquing.
