On the cheap, El Camino rear coil springs for '68-72 are shorter than normal stock height '68-72 A-body rear coils.

thats interesting, why did they make the elcs shorter i would have thought it would be the other way around.

Good info, any idea how much difference there is? I considered the 1" drop BMR springs, but didn't want to take a chance on it not getting me where I wanted to be (which they likely wouldn't have considering the 2" drop springs only lowered the rear ~1/2" thus far). I was leary of this as I used 1.5" drop springs on my Monte several years ago and it didn't drop at all (although the springs that were in the car had surely sagged somewhat). The other issue was the car not sitting level from side to side, which was the main reason for deciding to go with air bags.

Did either of you guys see the show muscle cars on power block last week when the guy they had on siad he had 1 of 2 Judges that were orbit orange???? When he said that all I could do was laugh. I don't know where he got his info but The car was just a Judge with the std. engine the Ram Air III, not a IV. It was the guy who also had a sublime lime Road Runner with a 440 six-pac. His judge was nice but where he got hois info , someone was trying to feed him a big line of DODO.
