LEAF SPRINGS ???

["Greg and Russell" <65luxuryliner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

 

Don't know where you received your information regarding buying leaf springs.  Granted you can't walk into NAPA and buy a pair off the shelf but you can buy new ones.  I speak for my '65.  But I would think you could buy them for your '61 as well.  Check out this website:  http://www.espo.com/  I'll bet they can help you!  Also try The Tire Rack for KYB shocks.  If they don't have what you need, go to the KYB website. 

 

Good luck,

 

Greg McDonnell

FOUND OUT YOU CAN'T BUY NEW LEAF SPRINGS, THEY HAVE TO BE COPIED AND MADE NEW. IS THIS TRUE? ARE THERE ANY THINGS I SHOULD BE WATCHING OUT FOR?  AS FOR SHOCKS ARE THERE A CERTAIN KIND THAT ARE BETTER THEN OTHERS THAT I SHOULD BUY?  
    SORRY TO SOUND SO IGNORANT BUT MY KNOWLEDGE OF THE AUTOMOBILE IS TIGHTNING A LOOSE SCREW. THANK  GOODNESS FOR THIS CLUB AND YOUR EXPERTICE ON IMPERIALS,
