    Re: Some explain this whole leaf spring thing?

    Any opinions on if a 67 convertible (added weight of power top) would sit any different than the picture MS posted (67 coupe) with 4.5 leaf reverse eye springs?  My convt has the 1" shelby drop and 1" lowering front springs.  Thanks for your opinions.

    What is this???! Show-me-yours....Show-you-mine!?
    This is mine with stock (replacement) 4 leaf springs and "original" front springs with 1 coil removed and the Shelby drop and then a   poly1" spring isolation pad added to the top of spring.  Rear is "maybe" 2 inches higher than front.

     
    Looks great what size wheels n tyres are fitted?
