I put a new set of coil springs in it. I had coil over shocks and spacers in the drivers side coil spring. And it still bottomed out on big bumps doing 55.

Ole 307 spring was wore out. I used the 5390 moog for the front. Old coil diameter was .6 new ones measured .68 even tho they say they are .656. they did have thick paint on them. Rears were moog also but same as small blocks.

It raised both ends about a inch and a half. Front is alot stiffer now tho It isnt pushing down easily. I dont think the wheels gonna hit the wheel wells anymore. And header clearance doubled.
