    hey, does anyone know of a way to take a stock 1946 chevy parallel leaf front suspension and (useing one stock spring) make it into a mono leaf?

    it doesn't work that way.

    monoleaf springs are thicker in the center and taper toward the ends, giving the spring a progressive rate like a spring pack would.

    butch's rod shop sells aftermarket monoleafs if you're looking.
