Tony, New stock replacement coil springs will give your a car new feel. And a
much better ride. I would also recommend using stock rubber replacement
bushings. New rubber, springs, sway bars and shocks will give your Chevelle a
renewed ride. Most of these parts can be bought at your local parts store. The
coils may be the exception. The last time I bought OE type coils was from
Classic Muscle for around $60.00 a pair.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Suspension question ?
Long time reader, first time poster. I currently have my wife's 71 malibu
in the body/paint shop. I was talking with the supervisor there yesterday
about our suspension. The front end needs reworked and I also opted for new
springs and sway bars all around. Where is the best place to buy these items
without breaking the bank ?
The car is gonna be a weekend cruiser, and of course we'll be at
Chevellabration and a few other car shows. What I'm getting at is I don't need
a high dollar suspension overhaul for the car, but I want good drivability and
handling for it since it is the wife's.
A few more details, we are going back basically stock wioth everything,
we rebuilt the matching #'s 307 motor and 350 trans and everything else is
stock. You guys just give me your ideas what I need to have a great driving car
without a whole lot of expense. I do want to get at least 1 inch sway bars.
Thanks for any info and the info I've gotten from this list so far has saved me
a considerable amount of time and labor on our car. Thanks again guys. Tony
