i'm surprized ya dont have a shop near you. i know of 3 local shops here in st louis,mo that repairs & makes them. i'd start in my local phone book.
as for eaton, well they have been making them forever & have 1000's of spring specs so they should be able to do the job, but personally i would rather have a local shop do it, only because if it aint right, it would be much faster to take it locally rather then waiting on the UPS guy to show up....joe

HEY 52: I went to a seminar at Street Rod Nationals that was put on by Eaton Spring. They seemed extremely knowledgeable and willing to help. They have been in business since horse and bugy times and may have an upgrade suggestion...DAVE
