Third Time’s A Charm! Putting A Reverse Eye Spring Into A 1932 Roadster

For me, building a hot rod is all trial and error. I was originally running an Old Yankee Speed Shop 1937-40 Reverse Eye Rear Spring on my 1932 Roadster. I wasn’t overly happy with how soft the rear end was, so I swapped that out with the original 35/36 spring to see if it would stiffen up (it didn’t). I decided to put the reverse eye spring back in and add one more leaf. Third time’s a charm because it’s just how I want it now!

Great video. Smart move putting on the safety glasses, all it takes is one time for you to regret not having them.

Good job! I'll keep watching. I think you'll be just fine. And, hopefully a sponsor or few will tune in and help ya keep the ball rollin'. If you keep up the good work, I don't think they'll be too far in the future.

another old school way to stiffen the rear springs was to add a short bottom leaf to the top side of the main leaf in your case you add it to the bottom side of your spring as its reversed to normal rear leaf springs on later cars a lot of rally drivers did this in the 70's and 80's to make the rear suspension stiffer

The 37-40 spring works better, I think. Car is looking good, take care.

I seem to get dirtier than that walking into my shop. But that’s just one of my flaws.

It’s good to see a young woman with passion for working on her car instead of just because she is cute and shows her cleavage on KZfaq. More videos of your good work and clean garage.
