I'm rebuilding the rear leaf springs for a AAR cuda. I have everything detailed and assembled except for the last retaining strap to attach. I can't get them on. I have tried using multiple c-clamps & did get them on but very little of the fold over tip held it together & it looked terrible. I bought the rebuild kit from Mancini & it was the big & small block kit. I questioned it on the phone when ordering becuase I thought I heard the AAR's got the same springs as the hemi cars but they told me no on the phone. Did I just get the wrong rebuild kit? The straps in the kit are smaller than the originals I took off without a doubt. I have tried to re-use the originals & can get them on but the locking tabs just snap off when I bend them over, just too old & weak. Anybody experience this? I have just had one of those "walk away moments" before I throw a c-clamp through my shop window. Is there a better souce for these or is everybody selling the same strap? Thanks.
