Leaf Springs

djbr459 · Sep 26, 2014

Hi All,
I'm looking at a new set of Mopar B Body rear extra heavy duty leaf springs, P4452982, same spec's. as the 440 & hemi option.
I want to put them on my 66 Coronet.
Will these springs raise the car allot? I don't mind a little but I want to keep it as lever=l as possible.
Should I look for a different set?

Thanks

I have a set on a 65 Fury and it just leveled it out.

Yep I put a set on my car thought the 47-year-old springs would be wore out but it didn't change the height of my car at all. Can't even tell any difference in the ride.

If you change springs check and make sure that the front hangers will still work.

I just tossed those leafs in my 66 coronet. Also added add-a-leaf springs helpers and kyb shocks all around and a hotchkis rear sway bar. Zero lift.

Well when I say zero. My prior setup was the original leafs and rear air shocks pumped up.

I'll post pics later.

In the end with the combo of my parts I ended up at the same height I started at. That's ok by me. Without air in the shocks the car sat way low.

The front hangers will work

Have a set on my 66' Satellite.. Retains orig./stock ride height. Original front hanger will work as watermelon stated.

Before with air shocks at 40 psi and og leafs

New xhd leafs kyb shocks n hotchkis rear sway

Overall the lip of wheelwell opening comes about to the bottom of the white lettering on the rear tires

I can't figure which way the iPad will rotate images. My apologies

The leaf springs should restore the cars ride height to stock.
