Post subject:  New Springs for my 66
After the Catoctin cruise I decided that new springs were a priority. The front now sports a set of progressive springs from Pro Motorsports. The back has a set of 4 1/2 leaf standard eye Grab-a-Trak with new shackles. Needless to say the ride is far different! :btu:

Looks great, did you do the work or get it done? My 66 could use the same

ndnboy,
I had a local guy do it for me. I could've done the back ones, but for the front, compressing the springs made me a bit nervous and the alignment needed a tweak so I just had him do the whole thing.

Have you considered new shocks? Bilsteins are good but very expensive. For my 87 and 95 the Tokico HP (AKA Tokico Blues) were great and bit cheaper then the Bilsteins.

What have you found?

Dave,
I have new KYBs on now. Suspension wise I've done:
Shelby drop
new shocks
springs
1" sway bar

Want to put in sub-frame connectors and maybe a rear sway bar.
