Eaton Detroit Spring
Eaton Springs was founded in 1937, in the midst of the great depression. In order to survive, Frank and Grace Eaton decide to take a huge risk - they sold everything they owned and bought the aftermarket division of Detroit Steel Products for $11,000. A few years later, their lease ran out. Not to be deterred by something so simple as an expired lease, the Eatons picked up everything and moved, lock stock and barrel, to the corner of Michigan and Trumbull where they still are located today. Now, Eaton Spring is run by the grandson and great-granddaughter of Frank and Grace. The business has grown and they now have over 24,000 OEM Spring Blueprints so they’re sure to have the right spring for your Corvette.
