1974 roadrunner leaf springs

[Rkjzh74]

Replacing the leaf springs on my 1974roadrunner. I have 21.25 inches from the front to the pin. Seems they made two different lengths . The ones I bought from jegs are 22 inches, any suggestions would be helpful.

I don't know, but found this. http://www.hotrodreference.com/1105/mopar-passenger-car-leaf-spring-dimensions/

Note where it says "Some 1974 B-Bodies had a 21.25″ front segment length with the same rear segment length as other 1974 B-Bodies."

However it doesn't get into any more detail than that.

Is the front eye on the springs the same style or different ? Some early 74's had 73 which is like 72 style springs, later ones had a big oval bushing in front, like a 74. Later 74 's are longer also. If you bought the super stock springs, they will only fit 71-early 73 without mods.

Yes they have the big oval bushings in front. Maybe I won,t be able to find new ones. Don,t really want to modify,might have to have old ones refurbished.

Call ESPO Springs and Things, they should be able to get you the correct ones.

Espo is the only place for 74 springs. They can custom build them to do what you want to do.

I have a really nice set of stock original springs, if you are interested. They aren't sagging at all, and they have a set of traction bars in them.
