| Custom Springs manufactures leaf springs and U-bolts for the automotive aftermarket. The company buys raw, untempered spring steel in 22’ bars and then shears, punches, heats, rolls, and tempers it with its own on-site furnaces. The company also does trailer repair, aluminum boat repair, coil springs sales and installation, hitch installation, roll-up door repair and various welding jobs. "At first I didn’t know anything about the business, but I knew I wanted to be the best," says Carpenter, who had been among the few women nationwide in truck tire sales prior to joining Custom Springs. |
