site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

I think the difference in the two springs is more weight rating than ride hieght. Look at the side view of my '78, I have wagon springs on the rear, it sits level all around. _________________ 1978 El Camino Conquista/SS, F-41 suspension, 350/T5/3:73

It will lower you about an inch. The wagon springs have a extra coil over the camino stock spring. I took a pair of wagon springs off of mine cause I wanted it to set lower. _________________ 78 Camino SS, 355,built 700r4,3.23
