What kind of control arm bushings are you using?

If you use OE type, you need a more OE spring rate. If aftermarket, you should use a higher spring rate. It's important to know what you're going to use, it does make a very noticeable difference.

Is it an endura bumper car? That too makes a difference on what rate to run, considering the added weight on the far-most of the front. (leverage). '72 isn't as heavy as the 70s, so won't make as much a difference.

I would recommend the Global West springs, the 1/2" drop should be fine. You have to call them though, and be clear on what you have and what you want.
