FS: Moog 5391 rear springs, $50
For sale is one pair of nearly new Moog 5391 rear springs. These are what you get
if you order p/n PS370 from Ames, and are the correct factory replacement rear springs for a wide variety of '61-77 Pontiacs, among others. I put them in 2 winters ago, put about 1k miles on them, and decided they're a touch too soft for me. Took them out eariler this week to install some firmer springs, and they still look brand new. $50 + shipping, or if you happen to be within driving distance of Tewksbury MA, come on by and save the shipping. -Scott

These were installed in my '70 Bonneville convertible.
By soft I mean that their spring rate was lower than what I like. The rest of the suspension is fairly far from stock (bigger front & rear anti-roll bars, stiffer than stock front springs, etc....), and it was obvious when driving that the rear wasn't a proper match to the rest of the system. I increased the rear spring rate by an additional 25#/inch and now everything is MUCH better balanced.

Just a small correction to the original post. Thanks to a PM I received, I went back and
checked my original receipts. These springs were ordered from Ames as p/n PS365, not PS370. So, they are still indeed Moog 5391's, but the correct Ames cross is PS365. Sorry for the mixup! -Scott

If I knew what these would do to the ride height in my stock 68 GTO, I'd grab them in a minute. And only 1/2 hour from ya
