    Just checking for anyone who has a 33 Willys to see what rear coil over spring rate is working for you .Street driven, SBC, 200/4R fibergl*** body. Changing shocks on rear to raise it 1 to 2". The ones on it now are way to short to adjust and and springs are way to heavy for car. Also if you have put it on a scale,front and rear. I ***ume most all of them are pretty close to the same weight so I can figure what rate springs to order. Thanks thumbnail_IMG_6913.jpg thumbnail_IMG_6909.jpg

  2. I had 185"s on my 33 Willys & they were way too weak. I have ordered a pair
    of QA1's with 220 lbs. I think the way the rear end is mounted has a
    lot to do with how the car sets. I will get back to you when I get them . Jerry

    Morning, Thanks for the reply. You would'nt happen to know what it weighs and the angle of the shocks? Thanks, Marc
