rockingjd Posted February 9, 2022 Report Posted February 9, 2022 I would like to change the rear springs on my 53 Dodge Regent. Its a Canadian built car. Eaton Spring lists products for cars from this time period but not a Regent. I'm thinking Dodge built the car from components also used on other cars in production. Does anyone know which car has the same rear springs as my Regent? Thanks Quote
allbizz49 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Posted February 9, 2022 Aren't the Canadian Dodges rebadged Plymouths? Quote
rockingjd Posted February 9, 2022 Author Report Posted February 9, 2022 Yes basically. But a couple of years ago rear spring shackles were not the same as other US made cars. Quote
Doug&Deb Posted February 9, 2022 Report Posted February 9, 2022 Do you have a shop in your area that makes leaf springs? Many years ago I needed new springs for my truck and was able to get them made far cheaper than ordering them from the manufacturer. Quote
rockingjd Posted February 10, 2022 Author Report Posted February 10, 2022 I'm looking into adding a leaf. The car bottoms out easily and damages the muffler. I'm using air shocks as a band aid. but would like a better fix. Quote
