RE: Rear Springs

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The SS springs are designed to be heaver on the right side & I like them!!. 
The Short Story.   The objective is to adjust the left front Torsion bar to
level the car, pushing the right rear tire down to offset the tendency of
the right rear tire to spin before the left because of torque.  Same reason
the battery is mounted on the right side in the trunk!  Just my two!

Dave,
  I like 'em.  I've had cars sit a little high on the RH side but
nothing objectionable, IMHO.

I'm going to be swapping a different rearend into my '64 Belvedere (2D, HT)
in the spring.  While I'm at it, I'd like to replace the rear springs.  I'm
thinking about installing a set of new super stock springs, but I'd like to
get feedback from you guys who have done this.  Are they a bad idea for a
street car?  What other options may be better?  I'm looking to get the ride
hight up a little.  Even new stock springs would probably get it up a bit
higher than the 45 year old ones that are on it now, but I'm thinking
something more substantial than stock may be the way to go.  I don't plan to
make the car into a heavy duty strip car, but occasional 1/4 mile activity
will be in it's future.  I've read that some guys think the ride height is
too high with ss springs, and others think it's just fine.  All opinions are
welcome and appreciated.  Thanks!
 
Dave
