Hi Tom, I think this is right lol Here's a parabolic spring, they only have 2 leafs and the leafs are even length  Normal leaf springs have multiple leafs and there all different lenghts  |

your nearly right simon on the jap ones they are multi springs the parabolic ones are just a single leaf but are a fair bit thicker in the centre , the only sj that had them std was the sj410 santana NOT the 413 , the rear parabolic on a 410 santana had a secondary flat spring with rubber stoppers at each end , hope this helps  |
