RE: IML: door spring kit for my '66



Richard,
 
What is in the spring kit?
 
Much of my '66 hardware is shot, like the broken eyelet on a movable flange (sorry, I do not know the correct term for that part?) for one end of the spring!  
 
2 door coupe doors are really heavy, I have rarely seen a 2 door model with good springs if it has mileage on the car.  I bet it is the same hardware for the front doors of a 4 door model, so not really well designed for the heavier doors of the 2 door models.
 
Regards,

Rich,

I've always had good luck calling Lowell.  If he isn't there, he gets back to you very quickly.

Tom

Elijah,

 I tried to email Lowell with the address you provided it but it won't go though. Any suggestions?

 

Rich W.

I remember reading on the Imperial Web Site Club that somebody makes a spring kit for the driver's door. The door spring makes a terrible popping noise when opening and closing the door.  Does anybody on the list know anything about these spring kits for my '66?

I believe Lowell Howe has these available:

Good luck,
