Tearing apart the front end of my '68 LeMans to replace what's needed, I've noticed the "oval" shape of the lwr control arm bushings; is there anything I need to know before replacing? Energy suspension offers replacement bushings, but it appears you have to RE-USE the bushing shell (!). I was leaning toward Moog or another aftermarket brand. Also, a good recommendable coil spring?

I have the energy suspention kit, it comes with the oval shell. You do not have to reuse yours.

Eibach's Pro-Kit springs come in an A-body variety. They say they lower the front @ 1.5" and the rear @ 1". But since they are basically made for Chevelle's (probably with a small-block), I'm not sure how much they will actually lower a heavier big-block car.
My 1970 GTO has a great stance with them on, but it's not much different than I had with badly sagging stock springs. Anyway, they are a great progressive-rate spring. I found a set of 4 for @ $260. ------------------ |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
