Thanks for the help. </div></div>

They will work on your Nova..the spring pad perch are basically universal and those bolt holes are grooved out for several different u-bolt diameters.

Thanks for making what appeared to be a bad situation a good one. Now I'm torn, do I cut the extension off to make them as they were or do I leave them as is since they are supposed to hit right at the spring eye. Opinions on color?

Its a 69 I bought for my now 10 year old son. He wants to do the car day 2 style. He wants to keep the 5 slot rims, add a stinger hood, respray in original butternut yellow, etc. He has pictures on his wall of the blue day 2 Yenko Duece from a fellow member. That's the look he wants for his car.

Bars on the 69 with 4* wedges. They've been on the car with this Day 2 setup since day one!

Sure do look like Drag Dimensions. They were made in Canada and you just don't see them very often.
