Swampy442 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Ive recently purchased a classic car, and Im trying to find lowering springs for it, which is proving very difficult. Short of going ghetto and chopping stock springs, is there any way you can get them 'lowered'? Heat treated, re wound etc? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Do you know the spring rates? If so you could probably measure the dimensions, work out the dimensions you are after and buy a-n-other set not specifically for your car but that will fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Ive found that cars with a later chassis code may be the same so Ill have to investigate. Can Mr Chris Wilson not shed any light on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Show us a photo and mark up some basic dimensions on the photo - length, diameter at each end etc I could probably test them for you to get the rate(s) which would be a good starting point for new springs. D.Faulkner can make springs, they did several for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
