Re: [Chrysler300] Re: riaising a brute

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just as a point of info, NEW rear springs can be ordered thru the club 
office for about $250 a pair. I doubt you can get re-arched for much 
less. Contact the Office for the current price or check your latest 300 
Club News.
When you need parts, check the Club News first and then the Club's 
website. The website is also a god source for solutions, as there are 
many articles with photos which may just be what you're looking for. A 
truly great resource for us, thanks to the Electronic Communications 
Committee.

Regards to all, Ray
Y'all have a great holiday season, and tell all those special people 
that you love them.
