Re: Best rear coil spring 69 Burb
I have a 72 Burb with a recent front end rebuild with 2.5 inch dropped spindles and factory front springs. Wheel arch measurement through the center of the 15 inch American Racing Torque Thrust wheels and BF Goody 225-70-15 front tire is 29.5 inches. Perfect look for me. The original back springs are nearly solid (little to no coil separation) and the wheel arch measurement is 30.5 inches, which looks good sitting still. I have a set of new factory Burb springs and would like someone to give me a wheel arch measurement if they have new factory springs in the rear (include tire size). If anyone out there have used 2-3 inch dropped rear springs, give me a wheel arch measurement and your rear tire size...pictures would be nice too! Just trying to arrive at the best guess rear ride height so I'm not too high or too low. My rear tires are 255-70-15 and the current rear wheel arch measurement is 30.5 inches. I would like my rear arch about the same, +/-.5 inches. Thanks!
