I'm getting tired of the rough ride in my 69.
Basic stock set up with traction bars.
Three leaf Detroit speed leaf springs, Hotchkiss shocks front and back, Detroit springs up front.
Is there a way to improve the rear ride without having to spend an arm and a leg or going 4link, are adjusted coilover rear shocks worth the money, I will be removing the traction bars this week, car rides like a lowrider.

How is the gap on the traction bar snubbers ?

I would suggest some double adjustable (DA) shocks Vs. buying and swapping a bunch.....cheaper in the long run too ;)

I made some CalTrac copies and bought some Rancho 5-way shocks....I can change from street to strip in a few clicks and/or dial in for good/bad track conditions. There are better shocks.....and I should get :sad:
