914 with a ride height 1.5" shorter on the passenger side at the wheel well.
Does that rhyme? New springs and the problem is solved right? 100-140 lb? Are there a number of different manufacturers that make springs that happen to be the correct size and I should just poke around or is there a preferred manufacturer (or un-preferred). Also, and in addition, I happen to have a brand-spankin' new set of Koni Yellows that came with the '71, never installed. Is there any difference from the '71 to the '74 as far as the rear shocks go? Gracias in advance Chicos and Chicas, |

This could also be your wake up call. Check your rear trailing arm pivot points,
acid from the battery can eat the long and suspention console and it usually begins with a sag. There are different companys that make springs for them, progressive and not. And many different ratings it just depends on what you are going to do with it. I run canyons and use 140 lb. springs some guys run on the track and use 250 +. As far as who to get them from there are many suppliers, I am sure that pelicanparts.com could help you. Those koni's will fit on the back. |
