On my 63 the rear spring was shot so I bought a replacement and when we put it in the car was way too high in back....I can't remember what we did to solve that....hmmmm....but the curve was wrong or something.....just saying......seeing you working on these parts brings back memories.....


Prolly put in longer bolts.

All I can do is wait and see what the new leaf and front coils do.

Note: Something you probably didn't do and I didn't know about until about 15 years ago, the leaf spring mounting bolts must be torqued with the weight of the car on the spring. It's possible to crack the mounting flange on the rear end if you don't. Applies to C3's too.
