Guest Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hi Guys, I'm down to the bare frame on my '38 coupe project and I think it might be best to replace all 4 leaf springs while I'm at it. Can anyone recommend a good source?Thanks, Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-shot Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 For my 37 Coupe. I had all the springs dissembled, cleaned up, re arched and a hole punched at the end and a Teflon pad inserted.Seems to be working. twenty plus years ago.Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Bonesteel Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 In the past I have bought replacement springs for both my 34 PE (rear leafs) and 34 Dodge KCL (front and rear leafs) from Eaton Detroit Springs and they were excellent, perfect match, right rates, etc. A little pricey if I recall but great quality. Don't know if they are still around, it has been awhile since I dealt with them. I seem to recall they had original specs for most old carleaf springs.

I had a front main leaf and a spring steel bumper bracket done by them years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
