Exactly!
I went with ESPO Springs only problem is everything is on back order and springs are 6 to 8 weeks out.
When I put SS springs on my B body popular opinion was to use C body shocks. I ordered shocks for an Imperial and I've had no issues.
thats a bummer,good luck and hope your happy with what you get.
I agree that the torsion bar adjustment will get it to sit flat, done it before. My main point is that unless your focus is the track, the uneven loading on the wheels and the arch to the rear springs will have the car handling poorly for regular driving, as well as having wheels lock up early under heavy braking.
You've got to be kidding me? This is a joke right? Poor handling and wheels locking up..haha....yeah ok. S/S springs paired with the correct shocks actually give a decent ride, contrary to what most will say...I run S/S on both my cars and the ride is so good that my wife has yet to complain about a shitty ride, and that's been 10yrs on my dart and going on 5 with my coronet.....last time my wheels locked up early was when I was still on front drums
If you're cranking up a torsion bar to even it out, depending on how far you crank it, you're increasing the load on two corners and decreasing it on the other two. This means the two light corners lock up earlier than the other two. Fact. Possibly not in your experience, certainly in mine, certainly in the physics of it. Obviously discs help a lot but not everyone has those. Also, it depends on your handling expectations but fundamentally a positive arch leaf in a corner steers the rear axle outboard (opposite of what any car built for handling does). This provides oversteer. For most people's expectations of handling in these cars it's likely fine, sort of a poor choice if you're one of the people loading up their front end with big sway bars and custom control arms. As for ride, I said nothing about that, can't see why it would be much different. You seem defensive about this, just pointing out the facts and the physics / geometry of the suspension, no need to be a jerk.
