Default Front coil over conversion

I see Jegs now lists a economy coil over conversion for $317.99
It looks to me like #122-GME13 may fit!
Anyone willing to step up to the plate and maybe waste some money?
(look for QA1)

I am trying to get my stance right ( like yours Tom )
I have had my front springs in and out 5 times now ( and i still dont like it )
I have rehung my rear springs 4 times now, Got it where i like it now ( leaf springs ) But it is a whole lot of work to make even a small adjustment on the front

when I built the car I ordered brand new springs from a co. in NJ that I found in Hemmings.I ordered station wagon with air plus 100lbs spring rate and they came out perfect IMO.Now it sits a little higher than I want as the complete engine is alu.Tom

Question Tom...

I'd be interested in swapping you a new V-8...air wagon set for yours if it would benefit us both. Just a thought, as I need to replace mine anyway and seriously doubt that I'll ever be faced with your aluminum engine "problems." lol Let me know. Take care. Ron
