Ride height
From some unknown to me reason, my 68 coupe sits with the nose up and the left rear sagging a little. I’m guessing this is from old and or broken suspension. I’m thinking of replacing the leaf springs and front springs to make for a level ride. I’d also like to lower the overall ride height an inch or two. I’ve seen that there are several options out there when it comes to new suspension and was wondering what size springs I should be looking at to do this? I’m new to this kind of stuff and have no idea where to start.
Thanks |

Springs are cheap and fairly easy to change out yourself given the right tools. I did drop springs in the front and had to cut them a bit to get the right ride height I wanted, and the 5-leaf mid-eye springs in the back to lower the back a little too. You might consider a set of KYB gas shocks at the same time if your shocks are older... For the money it is one of the best mods you can do, because there is nothing worse than riding around with worn out springs and shocks and you can change it all out yourself for < $400. I have some details about my suspension upgrades on my site if you need additional details.
Good luck.
