[AMC-list] Front Spring Recommendation

["Bruce" <amc440@xxxxxxx>]

I'm not sure if my two cents of info will help but this is an old hot-rodder trick we did on my 64 American and many Chevy 2's we built over the years. Many of the low buck suspensions we did had small block transplants which made the front end feel like spaghetti (hence spaghetti front end). We would take a small block Chevy truck coil spring and cut a 1/4 coil off where it bends back in on itself. The spring diameter in the center is the same size as the stock Rambler front spring which still fits in the spring buckets on the trunion. These springs are much stiffer and keep your wheels on the pavement.   You can make your ride height change by shortening the spring a lil at a time for the look you want. It might not be a scientific fix but it is one spring swap I will trust as I have seen many Mickey mouse font ends over the years working out of a Certified bodyshop. Bruce
