[Chrysler300] 1962 Frame 7 Springs

[2HsandaHeritage@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Group,

 

Using the 1962 frame chart and calculating the differences between the measurements at points A,D & C and then comparing them with the same data from my H and from my Sport, I find that the rear of both cars are 1&1/4" and 1&1/2'' low.

I am considering having the existing springs re-arched rather than buying new ones thru the club.

By raising the rear with re-arched or new springs, I will in effect will be pivoting the frame about the front wheels which will slightly decrease the 1&1/4" and 1&1/2" measurements.

The one question that I can't find an answer to is what should the measurement form the ground (floor) to the front (point A) of the car be.

I know this will vary with tire size, so what I really need is the correct measurement from the horizontal centerline of the front wheel to point A on the front of the car.

I suspect that the torsion bar adjustments on both cars have been altered.
