    C3 Springs?

    Does anyone have any suggestions on a brand of front and rear springs, for a C3, that will restore correct/stock ride height? Seems all of the springs I have seen are either too low or too high.

    Thx,
    Kevin

    It seems that most posts on the board refer to Eaton springs in Detroit. They are supposedly the closest to the original.

                I tried to order a rear spring for my 69 just last week. I was told by the local dealer that the number was discontinued. The parts guy said it had been out of service since 99.I don't know if that is fact or just the case of a lazy parts man.
