I have come across a set of springs for my 67 goat with auto and air. However the front springs are for a 4spd w/o air. What effect will these springs have, if any? Will the ride height change or will there be any other noticeable changes. I believe cars with air had heavier duty springs.

Most spring sets are "matched", meaning the left is different than the right. In the case of A/C cars, the RH spring is heavier than the left to account for the additional weight of the compressor and other a/c components. Installing a matched set of a/c springs in a non a/c car is probably not the ideal choice.

Chris,
I've purchased several sets of aftermarket springs (TRW and Moog) and I never knew there was a left or right. How would one know which goes on each side? Are they marked? If so, I've missed it.
