Good Morning All:

Any tips or useful websites to reference on how to ID a Model T rear spring? I have one and would like to figure out what it's out of or year.

Thanks,

Tim
 
If it has tapered leafs it is 1917 or earlier. Square cut leafs is 1918 or later. They were typically 8 leaf for all but sedans, the sedans used 9 leaf after 1920. They tried 6 leaf rear springs on runabouts for a couple years in 1919 - 20.
 
Kinda different rule, the front were all 8 leaf in 26 - 27. Different spring? No.

Rear the same as 1922 - 25, ie 8 leaf on all cars except the heavy sedans which got 9.

Yep. It's definitely a T, just don't know what year. Were '26/27 different as well?
