WTT front drop springs for factory height

I am deducing that my newly aquired project has 2.5" drop spindles and 2" drop springs. Slammed is not what I am going for, so anybody have a nice pair of factory height front 1/2 ton springs? on a 67 if it makes any difference, and I can get some pics. they look brand new, and I want similar quality for trade straight up or $80 so i can buy factory height.

Re: WTT front drop springs for factory height

oh, and based on a 32" factory height to the top of the wheel well, I measure 27.5", which is 2.5" spindles and 2" springs, but I can pull em out and measure if someone is serious.

I just took my stock 1/2 tons off if you want them pay the shipping and they are yours. They are off of a 70 chevy camper special. I can send pics if needed.

Re: WTT front drop springs for factory height

I have a set from a 67' stock height. I will have to get a pic for you. If you want you can have them for the cost of shipping. They are fine other than dirty and need a good cleaning. If interested I can sandblast and powdercoat them for $40 plus shipping. Let me know either way my zip is 17022.

Re: WTT front drop springs for factory height

So l took a good look at the spindles and they are factory height spindles (just disc conversions) so now I gotta decide if I want factory springs too.

looks like $35 from PA.

Re: WTT front drop springs for factory height

I have some out of my '70, we each pay shipping? I think it should be 15 bucks at the most to ship via Spee Dee Delivery. let me know if you decide to go with the stock height.

Re: WTT front drop springs for factory height

well, I don't think they are the drop springs I though they were. with a fender well at 28" and stock height spindles, the springs must have been cut 4". If you want these springs, you can have them for shipping. I found some factory heights, so I can compare, but they will lower your c10 to 28" just not sure how good the ride will be.
