Default Was there an option for heavy duty suspension on a 69 Judge

Im about sure there was this option on the regular GTO in 1969 since you can order remade springs for heavy duty suspension but I believe the Judge option came with better springs than a regular GTO so could you order the heavy duty suspension on the Judge.Thanks

Pretty sure that the only optional suspension was offered on both the GTO and Judge.

Smile optional suspension

Yes ; there was an optional suspension for all GTO's- it was was called "springs and shocks"-sales code 621. I've seen it alot on manual trans ram air cars and on several BASE engine (350 horse power) manual trans cars including my liberty blue 4spd 69.

The y96 option got you a larger diameter front sway bar. I have this
on my car.

I just looked into my 69 Ram Air registry and of the 70 or so cars I have documented, they all came with option 621 Ride & Handling Package on the PHS. I would take an educated guess that all 1969 Ram Air GTOs came with the ride & handling package but I know this does not help with your question

My 2 cents

The 621 code ride & handling package was standard with "The Judge" option.

For $337.02 you got the following with The Judge

RAIII engine
Rally II wheels
Ride & Handling Pkg
Rear Airfoil
Stripes and Decals

Bucket seats were standard but a console was not. Bench seat had to be special ordered but you got no discount for it.
