Mancini Extra Heavy Duty Rear leaf Springs

-
I’ve got Mancini XHD Springs on mine, thanks to my chassis guy I’ve also got adjustable / 2 hole front spring mounts and even with the 2” fabricated lowering blocks on my diff we still needed to use the upper mount to get the ride height I’m looking for!

For what it's worth, my '68 convertible weighs 3750 lbs without me in it. I run a pair of the passenger side 3200lbs SS springs with Koni shocks from Firm Feel and a set of well adjusted slapper bars on it. So far, it's the best combination of ride smoothness, road compliance and traction I've found in the last 4 decades. If you use a pair of driver's side 3200 lbs springs, the car will sit slightly lower. The 3700 lbs springs are just way to stiff for daily driver use, and they sit too high.

Initially I could feel the front spring segment wrapping pretty bad on hard launch without the slapper bars, so I put some on. It was shocking how hard my car hooks up out of the hole with them on there.

The photo here shows the 275/65-15 Nitto Drag Radials. I like having more ground clearance on the open road and around town, but don't want to compromise the handling too much compared to having it sit lower. It never rubs.

BUT ,BUT , we all know slapper bars wont work on a mopar !!--------------------------LOL
 
I have an old set that I was thinking of installing just for the Nostagia look but didn't. Car launches good without them. Got me thinking though.:eek:
