Good looking ride. I think you maybe about 1 to 1 1/2 inches higher than my car in rear. I am also looking for height and not for racing. What's your thought on 3600 lb springs and both being right side springs so car sets level.
you may be right. I've got street hemis now and the car always heads to the left in first gear. can't steer out of it either.
Mine measures about 25 inches from the bottom of the lip to the ground with the 3800 lb springs. Left-P3690455 Right-P3690454 Sits level. I would assume that the ride height would be slightly lower with a spring rated less at 3600 lb. Mine always goes straight when you hammer it, don’t know what it would do with 2 right side springs, just something I was considering for my 64. I like the way my 65 sits, probably a lot of people don’t.
Didn’t they used to recommend clamping the front section of the spring on one side or the other to make them go straight?
done the clamps; didn't make any difference. thing is violent, no fun to hammer.
A LOT OF A BODY GUYS IN THE PAST, HAVE BEEN RECOMENDED TO USE TWO "LEFT" SPRINGS IN THE WEIGHT OF UR CHOICE. Last post I read on the subject was by a mopar retailer.
From lewtot’s description that won’t work, he needs the “set”(at the least).
Thanks for the measurement. That's very helpful. Did you put the springs on the car ? Also were did you buy them from and I assume you got a left and a right.
Yup, pushes down harder with body movement. Wondering if lewtot has thought about preloading a little by raising left front with torsion bar for better weight transfer?
Yes and yes. I bought them from a local vendor about 12 years ago. You can get them through Summit or Mancini or any other Mopar Performance vendors.
Do you have any idea why using only “left” springs?
I always understood, guys did that to keep the car sitting level?
Like “bean “ said, although I don’t remember that much of a difference.
done and still do the left front preload. putting a fat guy in the passenger side does help; seriously!
Thanks
