Help with adjustable spring plates needed

[Zeke]

I bought a used pair of Weltmeister adjustable spring plates and found it necessary to order one of the actual plates that bolts to the trailing arm. Pelican is the only place I called that would even talk to me, others wouldn't even return my email. In determining the handing of the item, I told Pelican that I needed the right (pass) side plate.

Someone please verify for me the the adjuster screw is adjusted from the bottom looking up and that the plate rides under the part that has the splines.

Thanks.

That's correct. The threaded tab uderneath with the adjust screw is "pushing up" against the t-bar plate pushing down.
If you can't obtain the end piece, a welding shop could probably fab another one using the other side as a template.

Thanks a million, John. I just wanted to see it in print. I ordered the correct one and got the opposite. I started to doubt myself, but there's no way it would work any other way and I knew that.

Now, I have to go through the process of getting the right one. I started all this ordering on May 23. I'll bet it's sometime in July before I'm able to start work on the suspension when I finally have all the parts.

I'm sure none of this is Pelican's fault, but it sure is damn frustrating.
