It's Betts Spring Co. They make Great Coil Springs, don't know anything about their Leafs. Did Hotchkis or Bess have the Broken Spring in their Hands to say it wasn't Tempered or was it a Guess? The fact that they Sent out a Replacement doesn't warrant a Bash IMHO - I'm not sure what you would have had them do. I Mean S#!] happens sometimes and they took care of you
