    72 springs and shocks

    Planning on changing my rear leaf spring on my 72/ 350/ no LT1 coupe. Any suggestions on a good reliable spring to get and where to get it? Also any suggestions on a good set of shocks. Any info will help. Thanks, Carl

      Why not rebuild the OE spring? Unless it's severly corroded, rebuilding the original is the best choice - also the least expensive.

        Carl, As Duke says rebuilding the original is the way to go, sometimes a new set of liners and some new cushions help bring the cars rear ride up to were it should be, as far as shocks go, For a car that driven more that it sits, Blistin shocks are great and improve the quality of the ride.
