hey everyone... im replacing the front and rear shocks on the beast. since the rear end bounces around im thinking the springs are weak also. here is what i found at MOOG website... they are partnumber 6041 but they say they fit a 62 impala 4dr so i dont know if the specs are correct. does anyone know if these spring specs are the same for my invicta 4dr ht?? <TABLE id=table1 style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" borderColor=#d3d3d3 width=450 border=1><TBODY><TR><TD colSpan=8>Coil Spring Dimensions</TD></TR><TR><TD align=middle>End 1 Type</TD><TD align=middle>End 2 Type</TD><TD align=middle>Inside Diameter</TD><TD align=middle>Bar Diameter</TD><TD align=middle>Install Height</TD><TD align=middle>Load</TD><TD align=middle>Spring Rate</TD><TD align=middle>Free Height</TD></TR><TR vAlign=top><TD align=middle>Tangential</TD><TD align=middle>Tangential</TD><TD align=middle>3.650</TD><TD align=middle>0.718</TD><TD align=middle>11.25</TD><TD align=middle>2806</TD><TD align=middle>499</TD><TD align=middle>17.12</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> thanks for any help bill
turns out thats for an impala wagon... wont fit .. she said they discontinued making the springs for the rear of my invicta and hasnt found another mfgr that makes them yet the hunt continues i guess....
I would quiz them if they are correct but Kanter shows they have them for a 62 for $250 a pair. http://www.kanter.com///productdeta...0&Vdr=&Itm=&MDv=1&MDpt=0&MSb=0&Cat=87&Prc=124
yeah i found them from a guy on ebay for like 130 front and 150 for rear or something close to that i cant recall exactly what he said but its lots less than 250 im thinking maybe i should replace shocks first and see how soft it feels in the rear after b4 i soak a few bills into a set or coils??? just saggin like big time when u sit in car or push down on the trunk etc etc bein 50yrs old figured was shocks and springs but its sat empty without any extra weight on it so maybe???
it is 150 shipped for front and 165 shipped for rears (50bux for shipping) PERFORMO is the place on ebay if anyone is lookin for springs... if i wasnt sposed to list ebay stuff in forum i appologize
