The clutch grabs about an inch from the top but can be adjusted to engage farther down not an issue. I think the first thing I should do is get the opinion angle correct. I don’t know if it is in between 5-7%. Then yes the front spring eye perch’s as well as the back of the springs are replaced with new bushings. The rear leave springs are the factory style that came in those BB 4 speed cars. I believe they are 6 leaves on each side. They may be even a little stiffer than original. The springs are about 15 years old but the car has only been driven about 10,000 miles so I wouldn’t think the springs are shot. I have new 3 way adjustable hotchkis fox shocks all the way around and they are new. I think those shocks should be adjustable to work for this car? Anyone else have any feedback on these shocks? There is a factory pinion snubber on the car but I also have the tall adjustable pinion snubber but don’t want to put that on for street driving as it clunks and bangs often. Based on this combination I think it should squat and go, not hop around like crazy. How do I determine if the rear leave springs are the problem?
