Custom SPrings- SAcramento Spring? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Anyone ever had a custom spring set made up at Sacramento Spring or no of any other local shops that make up custom springs?

rockmup · 02-09-2007, 02:51 PM

yes, we also used to use them all the time at work.

Made me a custom 6 leaf pack for my CJ. Thin and worked great

numtel · 02-09-2007, 03:47 PM

I have never used them but the mechanic where I work spoke highly of them.

Petescoffee · 02-09-2007, 03:59 PM

Thanks.
I was thinking it would be easier to work with a local shop instead of over the phone and shipped via UPS.

i was just there today. I would say that Larry is OK for his springs. there is definately a fit and finish difference btw them and say deaver or national.
Isnt there any one in concord or the like?

how bout dentoni's?

Bebe · 02-09-2007, 06:36 PM

They were recommended by my mechanic as well. I spoke with Larry about some either custom springs or rearcing the ones I have. His prices seem fair too.

We used dentoni's at work and never had any problems but that was HD stuff.

I was also refered to Valley Springs in Dixon.
No spring shops in Concord. THere used to be but they left.

I have seen lot's of Deaver Springs and they are nice.
but

i am hoping to find a good spring shop locally so that I can work on the shackle angles with them.
