Hi everybody, I am thinking about putting new suspension under the 65 next winter. the car will not be drag raced or auto crossed. Just looking for a good repalcement other than stock, to take advantage of new tech. The car is just a sunday driver. Trying to keep the car at stock ride height.

Would like to do this for 1000 dollars or less for front and rear.


Thanks, Kubesh

$1k? Too easy.

stock "GT" front and rear springs
KYB Gas A Just or GR2 shocks
1" front bar
relocated upper control arms

The last is actually the single most important element, it decreases roll and "radial tunes" the suspension.

What 2+2 suggested is a good way to go. You could also get roller spring perches. I hear they help alot.
