Leaf springs

[5.7 hemi]

Where can I get some hd leaf springs for a 64 b body that wont break the wallet? My originals are just not cutting it and the air shocks I put in to help are giving me a rough ride. I dont mind getting some for a later b body, but, I would rather just remove and replace. If I go with the later springs, what company has everything I would need? Thanks!!

Summitt has the best deal. I think about $200 per pair

Also check with St. Louis Spring Co. I had them make up a set with 6 leaves for my '64 Belvedere.

On ebay there is some from mcveighs, not a bad price and I wont need to bet different hangers, I like the idea of remove and replace. Also it has been mentioned to get some add a leafs, so I'm toying with that idea also.

Re-arch is the way to go if you want to keep the originals. Only cost me about $80 bucks

As far as my consent try a transverse leaf spring clamped in the center as a locating member for the IFS.It is a perfectly doable suspension, in fact I raced such a beast 4 years ago.4stack unclamped on back of rr. not as violent as a birdcage.
