If you decide to do a drop with springs I may have mentioned the problem with the Ecklers CCI leaf springs I encountered. The rate was too low and the car squated to full extension on the shackles. St. Louis Spring company whipped some up for me and they were spot on. They really know what they are doing with leaf springs.

For the front I used Eaton Detroit spring. They are experts and make them right in Detroit. Plus they can help you pick the exact spring you need. I believe they are a little pricier than some places and for the quality, fit, plus their knowledge it is worth it.

Hey Doug -

I'm thinking 2 inch drop spindles with new stock height springs for the front and new leafs in the back. I know it's old school but I like the rake and after seeing davischevy's new 55's stance I think it will look great.

Whether you guys are serious or not about coming south to Texas, let me make this clear, you are all welcome anytime...." Nuestra casa es su casa".

There has been a new development with the wagon. We've decided to go full out with a LS swap. This is what Dee wanted to do all along. It was me trying to go the cheaper route. So the initial budget is out the window as is the power tour (most likely/realistically anyway). But we've got a new goal to do cruizin the coast in October.
