That price just tells me they are made in China instead of Mexico. Go for it!

I think I'm going to get a pair too  I've been looking for some stock type leafs - I HATE super stock springs on the street. Kinda funny I've been looking around at all the popular places and all this time good ole JCWhitney had them in stock |

heres the new springs.. it rides very well. maybe just a lil bounce in the back (i did get the heavy duty!) honestly i havent had sticky tires on them but i KNOW they will be good in a street strip application. pushing down on the rear bumber has just the right feel to it. best part= like 136.00 shipped to my door!!! it took 10 days to get em

My buddy put these on his Charger to replace his Mopar performance springs; the MP's were a tad more stiff (he could definitely tell at the strip), but they were a LOT better on the street.

If I am not mistaken, the supplier for those JC Whitney leafs is also the same supplier for ESPO spring....

Ok guys please correct me if I am wrong. but are all 67-74 "A" bodies not the same? I got excited about these leaf springs and went to buy a set for my 68 cuda conv. but the JC site is giving me a 64-69 cuda with a 6 leaf extra high lift? (not at all what I want) If I order the springs for a dart will they fit? and for what year? Am I missing something here? I have 7- 67-69 cudas and 4 misc darts and I have always thought the rears and leaf springs are the same. Mabe I is just stupid ![\/][](http://www.bigblockdart.com/Smileys/classic/finger020.gif) |

Good question. I have a friend with a 68 Cuda that has S/S springs on it and the rear shackles tilt forward instead of back. Are the springs short or just arced too much?

Just bought a set of 5 leafs....$59.99 each....$119.98. At $125 you get free shipping. So add an airfreshener and save the shipping cost! |

Dart and Cuda springs would be exactly the same.

those 6 leafs they have are touted as "high lift" springs.. i think they are the spring manufacturers eqivelent to the SS. i assumed my 5 leafs they have are like "xhd". which i think they are.. i just love mine.. i cant say enough good about em. i love the way my car sits and the ride is great!

I think I will order the 5 leafs also.
what did you do about the front bushing?
I notice other spring manufacturers use this as a selling point.
are the front bushings hard to press in?
