I used 2" Drop springs from coil spring specialties on the front and they seem to work pretty well, I like the stance and drive out of them. I need to redo the rear suspension springs and shocks, It's all up in the air right now, can go any way. On the rear I ordered 15x10's with 5.5 backspacing and will be running a good sized tire. So I am think I should order stock hieght springs, then if I need to go up or down a slight bit I could do that with some shocks?

Im looking through the OPG catelog and it's strange for the MOOG rear springs it says Part number TRW5413 works on 1971 and is 94.95 for a pair, and part number TRW 5379 works on 71-72 and is 53.95 for a pair. Both "All/ except wagon" I was debating if I was going to need rear springs when I put in the shocks which I definately need, but for $50 I will definately be ordering these MOOG ones for 53.95. Anyone know what the deal is? graemlins/hurray.gif
