I am trying to decide what rear leaf springs to put on my 52'. I'm not aiming for the stock height, more like 3 or 4" lower. I put some lowering blocks on the stock springs along with an "Axle flip kit" from Brothers, but it doesn't have that hot rod look. So far I've looked at TCI, Chassis Engineering and Posies springs. I don't want to spend more than 'bout $475 if I can help it. I would like to get Posies, but their site didn't have a price posted. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

In my opinion, I think that Posies is about the best. They're kinda like the Heidt's of leaf springs. They may be a little pricey tho. Anyways, good luck on your project.
