Added Comfort in New Springs for Ford V-8 1935

Local Ford dealer explains the 1935 Ford V-8 features longer and more flexible springs forming a spring base over 11 inches longer than the wheelbase to improve ride. The transverse suspension is redesigned with a longer front spring ahead of the axle and a slightly longer rear spring, both straighter for quieter action.

Car suspension advances for smoother rides and stability

Leaf springs are tapered to distribute load and quiet action on rough roads while smoothing motion on smooth pavement. Hydraulic double acting shock absorbers limit spring action. Transverse spring suspension enhances curve stability and reduces sidesway as 1935 cars use lower, more flexible springs with ends nearer the wheels, lowering position.
