    On the BoaB,I added a leaf on each side.KYB gas-a-just shocks. Slight rake when empty,and level when fully loaded.. On my wagon,I did use the ESPO srings with 1 inch upgrade..well worth the extra cost..

    Rear coilovers for C-body

    Do yourself a big favor, if your *** is draggin' contact ESPO Springs and tell them what you have and they will send you a new set of springs. Think of it this way, it took 60 years for your original springs to fail. An new set should las almost as long. How old will you be when they need...

    Leaf Spring Sag, 1970 Fury Convertible

    Hi Dave. Thanks for the advice. I paid more for the Eaton Springs because all of their springs are made to order in Detroit. ESPO makes some springs in Mexico and some in US, according to their website. New Quality Matched Pair Leaf Springs For Your Car or Light Truck 1940-1990's+ Also...

    YES, YES, YES!!! Firm Feel Rear Sway Bar

    ...and holding it stable a bit but the sway bar eliminates the "wanna roll" feeling in a curve and side to side. I didn't replace the bars as Firm Feel suggested no need. The springs are ESPO springs, 7 leaf one inch over stock. The Shocks are Bilsteins. I think I'm real glad I have the bar.

    '67 Imperial Shackle Bushings

    I got mine from ESPO Springs & Things. Ask for Laura, they were the same as a Dodge van. The ones they had as listed were wrong. I say she would remember my order as we went back and forth for a while. Tell her you are after the same bushes that you sent to Peter from Australia with the 71...

    WANTED Wanted leaf springs

    Do you mean add a leaf to the springs you have or replace the 6 leaf stack with 7? Either way it will stiffen the ride up some. Only you can be the judge of what is too stiff tho. I've added a leaf before, basically cut the eyes off 2 main leaves and put them under the mains. It took the sag...

    71 Newport rear suspension question.

    ...and look at the number of leaves on each side for the body style you have. Notice the more leaves in the HD factory option, too. Then contact Espo Springs and Things (www.springsnthings.com) and tell them what you have and that you desire a set of springs for "+1" rear ride height. Then...

    Spring shackles for a 67 Wagon

    The bushings in the shackles are usually replaceable. Might need to be pressed in, but similar GM items just push in. Check with Espo for that deal, too. Firmer rubber is better, by observation. CBODY67

    Leaf Spring Sag, 1970 Fury Convertible

    Thanks for the link, Michel All the parts are supposed to be OEM spec, stock height. ESPO makes some springs in Mexico. I paid more at Eaton because all Eaton springs are made in Detroit. I wanted to be sure of what I was getting and to try and support American workers in this difficult time...

    Rear coilovers for C-body

    ...be harsh around town but ride better with a load aboard. Yet as mentioned putting more stress on the rear crossmember. Band-aid really. With ESPO and Alcan offering replacement C body springs they are a better solution to a saggy rear end. Buy Quality Automotive Leaf Springs, Coil Springs...
