Eric JB Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I am in need of a pair of stiffer rear springs for my 76 280/400sbc. It is squatting too much on launch. If anyone has a pair of anything that would drop it an inch or so and stiffen it up, please PM me. Also, if you have had a similar situation, and could help me with a remedy, it would be appreciated.

Datsun570z Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I have a set that I was about to throw away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatnow123 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I have a set (2) of what I was told are factory racing springs that came with some suspension parts I bought. I don't know how much they will lower your car as I went with coil overs, but they are shorter and feel like they have a stiffer spring rate then the factory springs I took off my car.Let me know if you want them...

Eric JB Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 Thank you for the replies. Whatnow, Do you know if they are for a 280 or 240? I think the 240's were shorter. You say they are stiffer than your stock 280 springs. Might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
