The brand new MP XHD springs I installed on my 1971 Challenger R/T didn't make it out of the driveway because the rear sat so low. I wasn't rubbing on the tires but they were very close. I couldn't imagine how low the car would have ended up when the springs sagged even more after a few years. Luckily I am close enough that I was able to take them right back off and return them to Summit Racing. I was told it is the correct "stock" factory ride height, which it might be, but most Mopars today aren't riding on short little 14" factory tires. Good luck.

Part numbers ending with an odd number are left side, ending with an even are right.
This applies to most, if not all, parts when there is a left/right (tail light lenses, fenders, doors, springs, torsion bars, control arms, exhaust manifolds, ETC)

I bought my Superstock springs from Mancini and they are the 3400 lb springs. They have been on my 63 since about 2008 and this is how it still sits as they have not sagged at all. Ron yeah, your car sits nice, pretty much has me decided i want to put the same springs on my 67 coronet which sits a little low in the rear with the factory 318 springs and a 28" tall tire... Thanks for the kind words. Ron
