Restoration and Resto-Mods

There is no such thing as a one size fits all spring.

Springs are by far the most misunderstood parts of any vehicle. Remember springs have 2 main functions:

• absorb road shock
• support weight

Unlike many other parts of a vehicle, springs can be very unique to a certain vehicle.

Many things that we do not even think about come into play when determining the correct spring:

• engine size
• transmission
• air conditioning
• tire size
• location of the battery
• side mounts
• even the build date

Because we have over 24,000 Original Factory Spring Blueprints on file we know what should be on your vehicle and we make every spring as close to factory specs as possible.

All of the above are great if you are restoring your ride, but what about those who want the old gal to look like she did way back then, but ride and handle a bit more modern?

Resto-Modding is when a car is restored and improved with more modern components.

Resto-Modding can improve a vehicle's looks, handling, ride and safety.

We do resto-mod springs all day long for all sorts of vehicles.

We know the language.

Every spring made by EATON Detroit Spring is made from SAE 5160, which is the highest quality spring steel available,plus every spring is Shot-Peened for longer life.

Credibility is what you seek? Credibility is what you get. EATON Detroit Spring is the ONLY spring manufacturer who has been Licensed by both Ford Motor Company and General Motors to produce authentic Factory Replacement springs and attaching parts.

This means 2 of the biggest vehicle manufacturers believe in our springs.

We have cataloged well over 166,000 stock automotive and light truck leaf and coil spring applications and countless more resto-mod and custom applications.

Because choosing the correct spring can be confusing at times, we will want you to tell us:

• Year
• Make
• Model
• Body Style
• Engine Size
• Transmission Type
• Air Conditioned or not
• Any Modifications made to the vehicle
• Standard or Heavy-Duty Suspension
• And if you want stock height or modified

Our sales staff will take it from there and choose and ship you the correct part number.
