Leaf, Spring and Coil Replacement

[tonytony9]

Hi Everyone!

I am looking for recommendations for a Leaf, Spring and Coil replacement (I am fine with a kit). I have uncut fenders and I am riding on stock tires/wheels, I do not want to do a lift. I do not offroad, mainly highway/mall cruiser. I plan to run hard top majority of the time, don't need to carry a heavy load and would prefer a more level look.

I used to mix & match with my Jeeps. I loved Fox/Bilstein for the shocks.

Any advice is greatly appreciated. I plan to DIY, as long as I can get the bolts to back out lol.

FYI, I need to redo all my steering. Have a nice death wobble around 40-55 mph.

Most of our vendors have nice kits that you can pick and choose from. Their springs are all top notch. I’ve had impressive results with the replacement springs from Wild Horses website and Duff’s website.

The Bilstein offerings from the vendors combined with the 11 pack leaf springs and progressive coils they all offer are pretty awesome. I think most of them offer a stock height version as well.

Good to know, with Amazon these days I often forget about SH. I am in the NE.

This kit …. just select the correct year of your EB (67-75, 76-77).

The factory shackles have a steel insert embedded within the rubber bushing. You can fight with them using a reciprocating saw or easily cut them out with a torch. The other option is to use new ones. WH has them too.

Northeast Classic Ford is east coast, and a good vendor here.

Do they carry the eb specific springs or off the shelf rancho/superlift stuff? Huge difference in ride quality.

I wanted stock coils and leafs for my 66, and found them at Northeast for a good price. Shipping wasn't too horrible either. I'm not sure of all the choices available there. Give them a call, you'll most likely talk to the owner, Nick, who is very much a hands on guy. 302-397-8537.
