Baldwin Suspension
 

Hi, I am finishing up a BM replica, does anyone know what they used for front springs? All the info I have collected shows the cars sitting higher in the front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thnx, Scott

They typically used the stock front springs with spacers under them to make the front end sit higher. The spacers look almost like a horseshoe.

Would they be like the rubber rings found at most parts stores? I was debating on ordering custom springs, but they are a tad pricy.

There is a set of 3" Front Lift Kit made buy EELCO for a 62-67 nova but i think these are the same idea as COPO is talking about ? Item number: 220010643899 on evil bay

Thanks for the tip, I emailed him to see if they would work on a Camaro

The spacers that I have seen are metal.

I read somewhere that the horse-shoe spacers are factory air conditioning spacers? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

That's right.

OK, what are factory A/C spacers? I've never heard of them before.
