Gotcha- is it tubbed?

I bought the Hotchkis 1.5” leafs and 2” coils. I removed one of the old 5 leaf-springs (d-side) and the arc is noticeably more pronounced than the Hotchkis spring. I hope the stiffness of the new springs are enough to make it sit a little higher.

In related news I have to sand the holes in the frame to accept the poly bushings- can’t get past go.
