I picked up a set of HD springs from napa for my 71. Taking out the old ones, they are much taller. Installed, the rear sits about the same as the old ones, pass side is a inch or so above the tire while the drivers side is right about the top of the tire....I'll have to take a pic of it.

I'm hoping when i swap the rear end and control arm bushings things will start to even out.

I need new springs in mine. What part # . Want to see pics of car with new springs installedI'll have to look for the part #. They are from the NAPA parts store, 71 chevelle small block heavy duty springs. They had three to pick from: economy, variable rate or heavy duty. $91.00 for the HD.

Once I get the car backed out I'll take a few pics.
