Hello guys. I am looking to replace my stock coil springs! I don't really know much about them. What coil springs would you guys recommend for a daily driver 67 stang? I have a 302 engine if that helps. I am also looking to get shocks. I want a smooth ride but good handling at the same time. What are your guys' suggestions?

I'd go with the GT rate springs, something like Glazier's CS-8534. Shocks are a pretty personal choice, based on your driving style, comfort needs, and even the quality of local roads. A smoother more compliant ride uses something like the Kayaba GR-2, while a firmer, more performance feel comes from their Gas-A-Just, which is what I use.

I can't seem to find that part on their catalog or on their website. =[

Look on pages 134 & 135 of their 2009 2nd edition catalog.

I like 620's with Koni set to firm. Roller perches would be in there if they were around when I did mine.
