I have 65 skylark w/ 455 ... Front end sets way to low... The car was org v6 I need to find out what springs I need to get that will fit and raise the front up....and also would like to raise back Thanks Terry Lucas Huntington Wv
I ordered factory v8 springs for my 64 since I had headers and aluminum intake. This is how it sat with the rear end have station wagon springs in the back. They were to high. I then bought Eibach small block chevy lower springs and that is the last picture now.
I used big block chevelle springs spec'd for a car with out air conditioning. The car still sat too high for my taste and i ended up pulling the front springs back out and removing half a coil to make it sit how i liked it. I attached a picture , keep in mind i have different size tires front and rear, about 3/4 difference in height between the two. Keep in mind the driveway has a slope to it.
I have a set from a 66 chevelle front springs not sure if they bb or sb not sure what years will interchange. Right now the rear has two springs per side I have headers and cant get car in garage without putting wooden ramps down Header are about 3'' off the ground.
I used 65 Chevelle wagon springs with AC, and cut 3/4's coil off. Sits perfet and never bottomed out my headers either.
