Any reccomendation on who to buy the rear and front springs from? Keep in mind this is an AC car and most places I look at are for non-AC cars.

Nope but I have Eaton Springs on mine, it also help when your only 15 minutes away but they make them to original GM prints, and it sits a little low in the ass just like it should be. Right Ramz.

I have Eaton and they will make them to your specs if you want ( sit 1" higher or lower or etc.) They have all the factory specs........

Heavy duty is for A/C cars and Eaton sells those. Apparently the A/C system weighs so much the engineers gave it a different spring rate.

Agree, but when I look at the Eaton site they give me choices under the "Car with AC" heading of normal or HD? It appears as though it's normal ride for an AC or HD. Assuming HD is for stiffer ride but better control

Brian, I got mine at Super Cars, you might ask him what he has. He's near by, and I saved on shipping too by picking up.

I've always used the air conditioned station wagon springs to get the ride height that I like. They do ride firm, but not like the 10 or so aluminum screw-in spacers we used to use in the 60's.

That's great because this damm thing is full of screw in spacers and the like. It's like a hardware store under there ;D. I send some pix but there's screw in type, clamp type and just about anything else you can imagine. Hey..... maybe it was your BR[]
