jyinger Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Can someone tell me: Will the rear leaf springs from a sedan work on a convertible? My project is a 1951 Chrysler Imperial Thanks Jon jyinger1@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinneyhill Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The Hollander 1952 says '39-51 DeSoto all passenger and light commercial rear leaf springs are the same. They fit a number of other Chryco makes too: Dodge '38-51 all Pass. and Light commercial; Ply '37-51 all pass., utility sdn & sdn delivery plus others.

c49er Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I know this topic has been thoroughly answered before.... but I need to say It's not about will other MoPar springs fit his convertible... it's about the ride and proper ride height for correct front end geometry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1lark Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 This thread is very confusing. The Title is "1942 Desoto with overdrive", but the question is about a 1951 Chrysler Imperial??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42 DeSoto Fifth Avenue Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 my 1 and 1/2 cents. The button on the dash 'may' refer to the push button starter that was part of the Fifth Avenue Ensemble package. This was the first for DeSoto since the Airflow. It was also available as a separate option. My DeLuxe Town Sedan has one. Ed K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
