[FC] WC: clamps to lower front springs on the GB

[Merv Krull]

Well, my fav mechanic could not or would not install them. Back to Can Tire 
they go. Gonna start looking for Cougar springs or probably order a set from 
KH.

I've used clamps before and had trouble with them creeping around on the 
springs.  I had to make a strap to go between the two clamps to keep them 
across from each other.  Obviously they weren't on a Corvair since there was 
no shock in the middle to get in the way of my strap.  I did drive the car 
really hard too.
They also aren't much fun to install.  You have to figure out some way to 
get the coils close enough together to install the clamps.

Hi all!

I picked up a set of spring clamps from Canadian Tire recently with the 
purpose of lowering the front end of the Greenbrier and bring the nose down 
closer to level. The rear springs are absolutely perfect height.

Has anyone out there used these before?

What are your thoughts?
