ESPO, and EATON DETROIT are the two major spring shops. Eaton was the original supplier to Chrysler, so if it were me I'd call them first. Espo gets good reviews too. I spoke to E.D. a few years ago, and their customer service rep was a greybeard Eaton Detroit lifer with them - super...

...Things in the past and have been happy. https://www.springsnthings.com/ Since it's in Pennsylvania, the shipping cost might hurt less from Eaton. EATON Detroit Spring My 300L has a set of Eaton leaf springs and they are good too. I'd say they are both the same, price them up and see...

...the cold setting process at a cost of $100. It would cost a minimum of $450 to have the same job done by the heat-treating method." If Detroit Eaton is, TODAY, selling you a NEW pair of springs, sprung and heat-treated to your car's specs, for $450, then that is some trick. And you have...

Good to know Eaton employs Adults in Customer Service! Never trust anyone under 60 with MUCH to do w our rides.....

...trucks great, but passenger cars are out of their realm. All this is really coming down to the fact that we only have one reliable supplier (Eaton) for replacement/restoration leaf springs. Their quality is good from what I hear, but their prices have gone up and it's going to be more...

I am not sure but they are also a lot smaller and lighter. Required the column to be cut and fit for the universal joint BUT there is a direct replacement available that wont require shortening the column. I suggested it because with tax, import tax, shipping and all that, thats what I would do...

The problem is steel eventually always goes back to its original state, which is flat. Spring steel requires a heat treat process that is incorporated into its forming. After a bazillion or 5 load cycles, it too sags back towards flat. Re-arching for the most part is just putting the spring in...

...be a mid range one based on the part numbers for police and taxi. But couldn’t find the exact information. Any way for me ESPO was about 1/2 of Eaton. I ordered them in mid January so hopefully get them in April. This was the quote I got in late November. Likely up from that after the first...

That was my guess initially after researching but I'm just having trouble finding the part number to see exactly what it is.

As I recall, the Eaton website has the spring specs (as to ride rate and such). As to "sag", back in college, I volunteered to hawl beer kegs to a party from the beer distributor, in the 1966 Newport Town Sedan. Sag? Certainly with three kegs in the trunk. BUT not on the bump stops! I drove...

I used my factory console and shifter with the 5R45RFE truck transmission. You could use yours with the 904 or the 5R45RFE but not with the Nag1. The Nag requires its own shifter. I saw one guy in FBBO that was able to fit the Nag shifter into his 68 Charger console but it won't look stock. Here...

...should see his house!) and I kind of expect him to pull the plug in the next few years. The hobby is going to start really suffering soon. Eaton Spring also seems to be a "Mom and Pop" business, albeit more employees in a larger facility. It also looks to be a 2nd or 3rd generation...

...Once you have done that, you can determine how low the rear of the car is and how to best approach getting the car level again. www.detroiteatonspring.com for prices, specs, and such for the rear springs. Other spring suppliers exist, but Eaton is supposed to be building them to the OEM...

...computer to make finished leaves pop out of the other end of the machine. When I found out about ESPO, they suddenly became an alternative to Eaton Detroit Spring, which was the first noted spring repro group I heard of for OEM-spec springs. Not doing "leaves", but still doing "coils" is...

...in a '70 New Yorker that sat in the woods probably longer than I've been alive. I tore it down cleaned it up and replaced the open 2.76 with an Eaton Detroit trutrac and 3.55 gears. I've only have about 50 miles on the rear and I'm very happy with it. Not getting real crazy yet since I want...

...there too. Also plan to get some basic gas shocks all around, but open to other suggestions and recommendations on any other parts I should prioritize replacing initially. Rear: Looked into Springs n Things, Firm Feel, Eaton Detroit Spring, and General Spring as the more budget friendly option.

...of us have bought springs from ESPO, Leaf Springs For Your Car or Light Truck 1940-1990's+ , but it may be cheaper for you (shipping) to buy from someone else. Eaton comes to mind. https://www.eatondetroitspring.com/leaf-springs/ I put ESPO springs in my '70 300 vert and am real happy with...

Yep.... been there. I really wanted this, a year ago, still no stock; Mopar 8 3/4" (8.75) Eaton Truetrac Differential I settled for this, so far happy, and I've not heard complaints from others. $595.00.... a lot more than you are talking, yet not $800-1,000 either, and IN-STOCK; Mopar 8 3/4"...

I've been on this board since it's inception. I am now 57. I think I've built up a lot of trust regarding our cars. I can also name a few " kids" here that likely know more about them than I do. " it's not the age it's the mileage" Indiana Jones
