I think Wayne gets them from Ron.

I will need a set for the Deuce this year, as the original springs are about done. I have been putting the spring 'upside down' on the axle during the launch because they are so weak. So, last year I put a band-aid on in the form of some cheap air shocks. This year it's time to get the good replacement springs, and put the air shocks on Benjamin's car to clear his 275/60R/15's on Cragars! The kid loves those wheels, breaks my heart

I've been told by a few folks here that 275-60s (14s) won't fit under a Nova. I'd love to mount my ProTracs on a set of SS or TT wheels and run them on the Nova. Lemme know if it works for you.

You're gonna have to jack it way up. Better get some extensions to go with the air shocks. And no riders in the back seat. Especially Howie.

Nah, the offset is pretty good, they'll fit just fine without having to jack it - they came from a certain '68 Gibb/Harrell Nova!

The extenders on top of the air shocks does work though, (along with shackles), as I did it to get my L60's to fit on my first Nova. Nobody could ride in the back seat either, had plenty of slices in the L60 sidewalls!

Ooops, this pic is with the 275 radials, the rims were Ansen 15x8's with a lot of offset to the outside!
