Instead of floating the rearend of my new 68 camaro. I think I am going to take the ladder bar system off and just put a good set of leaf springs on the car. I talk with both companies mentioned above and cant make up my mind. I have done all the reading I can on the Hotchkis but I am not to familiar with the DSE springs. Does anybody have any insight on the DSE springs???

Thanks, Erik

I have a set of DSE 3" drop springs with 175 lb rate. I haven't installed them yet, so that's all I have to offer (waiting for my Baer caliper brackets for the 9" rear).

Are you looking for a difference in the performance or stance, or both?

Thanks for the kind words, Donnnie, but it's not looking too good right now. LOL Half of the car is hanging on the walls of the garage. :D
