I’ve seen super stock springs on different Mopars and someof the cars look level and some look “jacked up”. I want to put them on mycar. How can I get the same stance as they do without the back end being wayup in the air? Do I need different shackles and front hangers? I value yourexpertise!
You just take ’em to a truck spring shop and ask that they be de-arched.Tell them how many inches lower you need and they will do the rest.
There are also lowering style front hangers (OK) and lowering blocks that gobetween the spring and axle (not so good) but the best way is, by far,de-arching. This is the only method that minimizes bump-steer and willactually improve handling.
