Re: leaf spring helpers?

[john althaus <althausjbl@xxxxxxx>]

I can't tell you any thing about rear spring helpers, never used them. "In The Day" I used air shocks on my 68 RR, but on this 64 I had the springs rearched. If I remember cost me about $200, car sits level (no that I corrected my front end uh-oh) I have a?new set of springs that goover your shocks, and a new set of air shocks for this B body if your interested, But I would recomend you get the speingsfixed or replace them rather than just adding a leaf to the spring pack.?

The front is as close to level it comes, it's only 1/8" lower on the 
driver side, and as far as I know the could be just my uneven garage 
floor..

I had replaced the shocks about 3 months ago, unfortunately they are not 
air-shocks...

at $36 a pair (if they work) the leaf spring helpers would be a very 
cheap way to go...

so John do they work? :)
