I need some new leaf springs for my car and i don't have very much money, the cheapest i found were these jcwhitney ones http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/...005965/N-200728541+111+1970+600003421/c-10101 I was wondering if anyone had used them or heard anything? I don't need the nicest or the best leaf springs, just some decent ones. Thanks -o

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 LOL

very cool... so do you have any pictures of how it sits before and after?? and how heavy duty are they?? are they really stiff or just right??

Sorry, had too )(/*

the one pic i want to post here is too big......... hold on

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

wow 136 shipped to your door?! that is dirt cheap

I run the SS springs and i don't think they are stiff at all on the street then again for a year i drove a 3/4 ton truck and for 3 montsh i drove that truck with a 318 in the back of it lol ahhh fun times

 

[abodyjoe]

looks like a good ride height

 

[strange246]

That looks great, I think I'll be ordering a set...

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....

 

[Guest]

its a spring manufacturer in michigan.. made in america as far as i know!

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  doh

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!
