Which new springs to purchase
I have a 71 Cutlass convertible. It originally had a 350 but now has a 455. The original springs are shot. The rears have spring expanders to sit at the current height. I like the current stance and would like it to appear the same after installing new springs. Currently, the tires are 24.75 inches tall, The highest point in the front fender opening is 24.75 inches from the ground. The highest point in the rear fender opening is 26.75 inches from the ground.
So, what springs do I get?
Stock? Lowered? How much lowered?
If anyone who has put new springs in can take some quick measurements or if you have a pic taken directly from the side and any info about tire size and engine, that would help.
Thanks for any info from your experience.
