Just to clarify what Hotchkis leafs springs are for others...
They are 4 leaf, not 3. And they are designed to limit the S-shape twisting the front section makes when accelerating out of a corner.
130lbs Progressive rate, not Specific rate.
The front bushing is 1-1/2" OD that accepts a 1/2" bolt.
The sleeve is 3-1/8" long.
Rear bushing is the standard 7/8" OD for 1/2" DIA bolts.
You will have to press them out of you run the larger 9/16" bolts.
(Energy Suspension #19608
You will have to make your own sleeves since this kit only comes with 3" long sleeves).
I'm using them with a 3" Spring relocation kit and they are fine. I wish they were closer to 150 lbs rate but I picked up the body roll with a stiffer rear sway bar.
Have you driven the car yet with the Hotchkis springs relocated 3 inches inboard yet?
