[FC] Replacing Rear Coil Springs On My 62 Rampside!

[BBRT]

David,

May I suggest you try and find out what the spring specifics are supposed to 
be, perhaps form Kent Sullivan or the Stock is Corvair Group?  Spring 
companies can make the correct spring for about the same price you buy them 
from Clarks or FLAPS.

Anyone have early 60's P&A 30's to look it up?  Have the info?
