did you ever find out info on bags for your '58? I was thinking of doing the same for my '58 and was wondering the same thing....

Best thing would probably be to get the rear spring height and diameter and give that to the folks at air lift. They can tell you the right bag for that application. Here is the height, but I didn't measure the diameter...


16 1/2 inches is what my springs measure. Part number 5288258. Standing upright, to the highest part of the coil.
