My aftermarket springs are longer at the bottom too. Why is this such a weird thing? Like everyone says, it’s easy once you see how it’s done. I wouldn’t cut off the notch. Maybe as a last resort....

You’ve got a nice car Johnny. I’ll check the spring again. Perhaps it’s like yours was. Maybe that’s why I’m struggling. I’m hopeful to get this done tomorrow. Thanks for the help.

My rear rims are 12.5 wide x 20 with 335 tires. Looks like 335 is the best I can do.

And this is why I retired. Didn’t notice the 19 and forgot the rear is 20 inch. My tuner noticed the tire was rolled in above the rim lip. It looks ok to me, but he sees C7’s all day long. That’s why...

I broke 2 rear fenders on my lowered C6 with 345. In fact, I have a new one leftover. Takers? My C7 is stock height. Maybe I get away with it.

C3 outside Mirror

It’s been years since I bought outside mirrors for my 76. Has the bottom mount improved yet? Are there any that actually work without wobbling? I just can’t get the base of the mirror tight.
