Considering the information in this video. I’ve decided I can reuse the spring in my C3 Corvette. I have taken the spring apart and believe the liners should be replaced. I was thinking blast each leaf to clean up. Question is do I finish each leaf with anything or just leave bare, assemble with new liners and then paint once back together? Painting the liners as well?

Is it normal to have some difference when it comes to the wheel-to-fender gap? I have a 2017 Honda HR-V that I use as my daily and that I recently had suspension parts replaced (including tie rod ends, rack ends, lower control arms and ball joints, shock absorbers) and I only just noticed (after 7 years lol, not really sure if this was a problem before) that the left side has a shorter wheel-to-fender gap compared to the right side. The difference at the front is around 1/4 inch or 6.35 mm and the rear is around 1/8 inch or 3.175 mm from my measurements. For the record, the car rides relatively fine after the replacements.
