Spring weights
I am building a 33 coupe and have coil springs front and rear. Mustang I I up front and swing arm rear. Any idea of what pound springs to use. The fronts I have now have 425 marked on them and the rears have no markings. The springs came with the chassis and I have no idea where I should be starting.
The rears are 3.5 x 10 x .5, 8 coils. The fronts have not been removed yet. Any help? |

Re: Spring weights
Discard the coil springs and install the stock leaf springs used for the 1933 model year....
