Great list and thanks for posting! On the Hotchkis leaf springs, I don't really want to lower my car. Is there a provision available for stock height? Thanks in advance.
Most of the lowering that occurs with the Hotchkis springs is the “geometry correcting” front hanger. If you use the factory front hanger the Hotchkis springs themselves are fairly close to stock ride height.
call pete at bergman autocraft. he will set you up with everything ya need. Home - Bergman Auto Craft - Home of Quality Muscle Car Parts / while blue's list is nice it can get confusing for someone new to american muscle and you'll be ordering from all over the place. ypu can pretty much one stop shop with pete.
Hotchkis rear springs sit really low on dart/scamp type of body from the reviews i've read on this board...
I agree that ordering everything without the help of a “kit” can be a little more confusing, especially for someone not well versed in Mopar suspensions.
But saying you have to order from “all over the place” is a bit misleading. The list that was quoted only comes from 3 places- Bergman AutoCraft, Summit Racing, and DoctorDiff.
Bergman AutoCraft is great, and Peter knows his stuff. And he has expanded his offerings to the point that you can one stop shop from BAC. But like any kit there are things in there you might want to swap out. BAC only offers the 1.08” torsion bars, for example. They’re a good choice for sure, but some people would be happier with PST 1.03’s and others might want Firm Feel’s 1.12’s. And that would mean ordering from more than one place. I think the end result is a lot more important than getting it all in one place.
