78 WS6 springs vs. non-WS6 springs
I never realized there was a big difference in the springs. At least, in the way the cars sit. I got the chance to compare a 77 & 78 non-ws6 cars, against my 78 WS6.
I was at a friends house, who owns a 77, low mile T/A, Then another guy he knows stopped in with a 78 non-WS6. So we started looking at things closer.
What I found was the front of my WS6 car sat nearly 3/4" higher in the front & 1/2" higher in the rear. All three cars have never been messed with suspension wise.
I also thought that my car was supposed to have urathane bushings. & I didn't see that. The bushings in the rear springs are rubber & the only thing that looked like poly was the front stabilzer links.
Any thoughts?
