Owen, I used a cut-in-four Corvette leaf spring for my tailwheel spring, it seems to be well adapted for that use. However, I consider it is not thick and large enough for a KR-2S main gear leg. By the way, the Corvette leaf spring is fiberglass and not carbon fiber.
Regards, Stefan Balatchev Ottawa, ON, Canada I would be tempted to look at the carbon fiber leaf springs from a junked very low milage Corvette or NOS. The Corvette carbon springs are light, high modulus, and remarkably cheap. I think they can be machined down to provide a lighter spring rate if thats desired.
