Level Your Ride: Coil Spring Spacers & Boosters
Does your classic car sit too low in the front or rear? Over decades, coil springs naturally lose their tension and sag, leading to a tired appearance, tire rubbing, and poor ground clearance.
At Old Car Parts NW, we offer a cost-effective solution: Coil Spring Spacers and Boosters. These high-quality spacers are designed to safely restore your ride height without the expense of replacing the entire spring sets.
Why Install Coil Spacers?
-
Fix the Sag: Quickly lift a drooping front end or rear end to level the vehicle's stance.
-
Stop Tire Rubbing: Gain the extra clearance needed for wider tires or fender skirts.
-
Budget-Friendly Restoration: A perfect solution for springs that are just "tired" but not broken.
Types of Spacers We Stock:
Our inventory includes various NORS (New Old Replacement Stock) options:
-
Rubber Donuts/Insulators: Sit on top or bottom of the spring to reduce noise and add modest height.
-
Twist-In Boosters: Insert between coils for a quick, adjustable lift.
-
Aluminum Spacers: Solid spacers for permanent ride height correction.
Unlock Your Alignment: Cam & Caster Adjustment Bolts
Is your mechanic unable to align your vintage car because the adjustment bolts are frozen solid? You are not alone. The Cam & Caster Bolts (often called eccentric bolts) are the critical hardware that allows technicians to adjust your wheel's vertical tilt (Camber) and pivot angle (Caster).
At Old Car Parts NW, we stock authentic NOS (New Old Stock) and NORS (New Old Replacement Stock) alignment kits to replace stripped, rusted, or seized hardware.
The "Frozen Bolt" Solution
On classic vehicles with double-wishbone suspension, these bolts often rust inside the control arm bushings over decades. When a mechanic tries to turn them to set the alignment, the eccentric washers strip or the bolt snaps.
-
Don't Reuse Damaged Hardware: Once the "cam" (the oval washer) is rounded off, your alignment will slip while driving.
-
Install NORS Quality: Our inventory features USA-Made high-strength steel bolts and hardened washers from trusted brands like Moog and TRW. They hold their settings better than soft metal imports.
Our Inventory Covers:
-
Lower Control Arm Eccentrics: Common on Mopar A, B, and E-Bodies and vintage Chevy trucks.
-
Upper Control Arm Camber Kits: For Ford, Mercury, and GM passenger cars.
-
Strut Rod Adjustment Kits: To dial in precise caster settings.
