I'm currently using 2" lowering blocks on my 1970 Cuda's rear leaf springs. I'd like to get rid of these by using so-called reversed eye leaf springs. They are pretty common for Mustangs, but I've seen none for Mopars. Any idea ?

Hotchkis makes a road racing spring with front a rear mid eyes. They also come with 1" drop front spring hanger. The springs have two thick lower support leave that go up to the front eye and one thick upper leave that resists wheel hop under braking which is a problem with these cars.
