lowering a 1937 buick special

Hello all I have a 1937 Buick special model 48 2 door I'm looking to Lower it a few inches front and rear looking for some ideas on how to do so without affecting the ride to much and not getting into a big project. Please give me your ideas and what you have done with your cars thanks.

 

anyone on here got any good ideas on how to lower a 1937 Buick special front and back a few inches..

 

I installed Jamco springs with a 3" drop on my '57 Buick

 

Eaton makes 2" lowering springs

 

I put Eaton 2" lowered springs on my 38 Buick front and back.

 

I looked into jamco but they don't make anything for my year Buick. I'm gonna look into Eatons..

 

Get ready for some sticker shock!!!

 

Oh I'm ready for it

 

on the cheap. cut one and a half to two inches off each spring front and rear.

 

I don't mind being on the cheap but with this car a rather spend a little money and get it done right...

 

Coil Spring Specialties can custom wind you a set to your specifications:

Does your car have coils or leaf springs in the rear?

 

37 has leafs on the rear, so 2" blocks will get you the 2" drop. Fronts I would cut a coil and go from there. I went a different route.

 

looks good buddy I'm looking for a little bit lower so probably will do 3 inch blocks in the back. Not sure about the front yet maybe drop uprights from fatman fab

 

With the 3 inch blocks in the rear is there a need to shim the rear end ?
