After playing with several types of springs for my Dart, I have a formula that works. The site for my shop Bergman Auto Craft is almost finished, where they will be listed. However, I wanted to share a profile shot of the Dart with the springs installed. These are 130 lb springs that have a heavily reinforced front section and sit at the proper height. If you use a 26" tall tire, the height will be 22" vertically from the ground, through the centerline of the wheel up to the wheel lip. The picture is at 21.5" because I use a 1/2" lowering block as well.

Man that look bad to the bone ! Nice looking ride. You hit on a good looking set up.
 
That looks just about perfect. :thumbup:

About how much are the springs going to run price-wise? I'm going to need a set for my Duster here pretty quick...

I am assuming that the front end is lowered, also, to get that stance. How much?
 
Front end is 24.625" front ground to the fender lip. It's deceiving because the tires are 26" tall. Same tires all around 255 40 18.
 
Are you saying you'll be selling the springs? If so I'm getting a pair haha, I need to new suspension out back and that's a sick stance. What rims and tires are you running there, in terms of brand and model?
 
Yes, besides the shop work where build and repair Mopars on a daily basis, I am getting closer to launching my site which will include the choice parts I use regularly.
 
I love what you did to the stance, what aside from the tires what did you do to the front end to acheive that stance just torsion bar adjustment? thats pretty close to the stance I want on my dart.
