Hi people could anyone tell me if you can weld to a Spring my springs have started to slide away or Splayed as the MOT man put it, What I want todo is weld on a U shaped bracket so it keeps the springs straight, the orginal spring did have one but it is bolted in place I would like to weld it in place.

Thanks in advance.

I have fitted add a leaf springs and on the rear when fitting them I removed the bottom spring in the pack witch had the U shape bracket to keep the springs aligned thats why I have this problem. what about 1 of them Clips that wrap around the spring like what on the front if I could get it tight enough.

generation-x:
ah get ya now m8y
yeah you cud fit the same as the front but wont that hinder your flex? as it wud be wrapped around ur springs

Its only going to be for the MOT or until I change the springs completly
