70' coil spring, help needed
Hi there,
I'm seeking some advice, I will need to buy front & rear coils for my 70 GTO which I'm restoring. body is presently off at the frame, I will replace the body bushings as well. Looking to have a correct stance once done, I want the car to be within the stock ride height. I don't want to end up with 'off road' look. The coils that I had on the car were incorrect. Any suggestion would be appreciated. 400, Auto, PS, PB, non-A/C. |

Not sure if it makes sense for you so just 2 cents. On my second gen Firebird I only have coils on the front. After all the pains of height configuration on the front over the decades, I went to coil-overs. Problem solved for me and I am extremely happy with the flexibility. Wish I had coils on the back, but I am staying OEM style so have figured my way around that. The front flexibility made that aspect easier to work with.

For my 72 I bought from Ames and they look stock like I wanted.

Here ya go. Keep in mind, I also put one inch spacers on top, as some say a vert sags when top is lowered. I am glad I did.
