[Shop-talk] Car suspension repair: Concern over heat effect on metal. What's the proper approach?

Pete,
Have you talked to anyone at a spring shop?  A decent spring shop can make
just about anything that you could want for minis to big rigs.  They should
also be able to re-temper the bar, and could certainly advise you as to how
to deal with your situation.  Since this appears to be a rather thorough
restoration of an unknown make vehicle, cost must be a secondary
consideration after correctness.  My limited experience with spring shops
here in Sacramento leads me to believe that they might be an affordable
solution.
Hal
