Brought Home The Dream: '69 RS Z/28

[cruiserofland]

Finally fixed the stance!

My front ride height was at about 26” to the bottom of the center of the fender wells (rears are a lovely 24 3/8”). I worked with Kevin at Coil Spring Specialties on a custom set of front coil springs, and I first ordered in the spec recommended by Wayne D Guinn. This brought my fronts down to about 25 3/8”. Not quite happy with it but now having a proper baseline, I ordered a second adjusted set and now the front sits level front to rear, at about 24 3/8” �� Perfect!

Thanks very much to my friend Mark for prepping and painting “as-cast” then installing the second set

So far no rubbing anywhere, on 215/65 BFGs and factory YH rallys, and the spring rate of 507 lbs/in feels planted but not too stiff.

For reference, the front left actually sits about 1/4” higher than the front right, but I decided to keep the custom springs the same left to right. Not sure if others have observed this ride height different left to right but it’s ok w me
