[Tigers] Looking for reas springs.

[David T Johnson]

Try your local spring shop.  In Chicago its Chicago Spring.  They
can make springs for any car from any year.  They usually make
springs for semis and buses but will work on your car.  Drive in
Drive out service.
 
My Tiger was sagging a bit in the rear. (Parts of me are saqging too)
They wound up just re-arching the whole spring pack.  They made
some new bolts too.  The shop guys loved the Tiger.  Look traction
bars! They're too short and on the wrong side of the axle.  The owner
said the old straight axle 'Vets ahd the same problem.  The fix is simple:
make the secondary almost as long as the primary.
 
Has anyone tried this?
 
Dave

If you are looking for something more-or-less stock. I had pretty good
results with those sold by Victoria British. For something stiffer, many
folks like the ones from Dale A.

Hi group I have started work on my rear springs and found some leafs broken
does anyone know if there
are new available or do I need to get them made? If they need to be made
does anyone know of a spring
shop some where around the Dutchess County,NY area.


Thanks Again
George
