Two of them still had the tags on them when they came in as well as original assembly line shocks but sit high. I have tried several different Moog springs and am now onto trying Eaton springs. We have also done all the math with the vendors to try and resolve it and have a TON of money in both labor and spring cost and have not been able to get them to sit right. Been doing this for 40 plus years and these last 4 cars are killing me.

That is very strange.


I had to read your note twice to make sure I understood correctly...….


Did the 4 cars sit nice and low when they arrived unrestored?


My car sat perfectly nice and low when I got it and I reused the original springs an it sits the same now...…… I'm really puzzled Rick, keep me in the loop!!


Control arm bolts tightened when the suspension is up as high as possible? I am not going to have any suggestions for you as I have 1 year of experience and you have 40 :-)
