FRONT COILS SPRINGS Recommended for All models including stock & all modified applications (even big blocks) powder coated, Pr. Made in USA
Ride Height Tech Notes; New springs will be considerably higher than 50 year old original springs. With a 26" diameter tire you can expect to see 2 or more inches of air space between top of tire and wheel opening in the fender. With lowered coils about 1 inch or more. Note requirements on other changes that can affect the ride height you wish to achieve, such as different lower A-Arms. Never use a wheel over 7" wide in the front. When using a stock spindle disc brake kit we recommend a 6" wheel width only. Any tire that can be used on the front of 55-7 will fit on a 6 or 7" wheel. Never cut more than 1 coil from any spring. Cutting 1 coil will lower the car about 1" or a little less. Bear in mind when you lower to extremes you can expect problems rubbing wheel well when wheels are cut hard [normally when you are going slow], the lower you go, the more you're gonna rub even with the above recommendations, although if followed the rubbing is 'manageable'. Compute your ride height carefully.
