Good spring story I want to share... Had a 66 ElCamino that had been lowered by torching the springs and letting them sag. Oki lowering job. I did the oki thing to bring them back to stock. I heated them up and bent them back into shape. Then I quenched them to get the temper back in them. One of them tipped over on the driveway and broke in half. I was "Oh ****, WTF" and figured I should have probably annealed them instead of quenching. So.. in true oki fashion, I welded the spring back together using a coat hanger as welding rod and annealed it with the torch. I have no idea how long it lasted since I sold the car shortly thereafter.
