reverse eye spring
Hi, I am new to the forum. I am starting an A v8 roadster with a 59A flathead. I need a front28-34 reverse eye spring with 3/4" eyes to match spring perch. Model A has smaller shackle bushings. I can buy a new reversed main leaf with 3/4" eyes but I also have to buy a new standard spring to put it on. I do not want a Posie or easy slide spring.
Does anyone sell a complete reversed standard spring? Thanks,John Last edited by john in illinois; 02-03-2013 at 02:19 PM. Reason: change wording, add word |

Re: reverse eye spring
I had a new main leaf made at truck spring shop. Cost about $60. Took old one and told them to make same arch but reverse eye.

Re: reverse eye spring
If you go over to our sister site The HAMB you can search for many threads showing exactly how to do this. Not hard to do especialy if you have access to a press of some kind. But as stated you can do it with a dead blow and some blocks. Wear ear and eye protection.
The HAMB is also a great place for info on building an A-V8 trditional stlye car. |
