When I worked for NAPA Auto Parts back in the early 90's (boy that sure
sounds weird, eh?), we sent out all of our custom spring orders from our
machine shop to Gitts Spring in Auburn, WA. They customized pretty much
any leaf spring arrangement you wanted whether you were reworking an
existing spring or making a new one. They could make whatever you wanted.
It's been years since I've dealt with them so they may be different now.
There are a lot of spring makers in the Puget Sound area though, especially
in South Seattle.
