Imperial ride comparision

["imperialman" <imperialman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings everyone

. All things being equal ,how would the ride, steering ,and handling  compare between a 60 and 67 Imperial?.

I know that they  both have torsion bars up front with leaf springs on the rear, but is that where the similarities  end?

 

The reason I ask is that my 67 Crown Coupe handles ,corners and takes bumps surprisingly well for such a large car.

 

 By contrast my 60 will bounce a bit or "float "  over bumps.

  Not a terrible bounce ,but much different than my 67

 

 Also though there doesn't seem to be anything specifically wrong with the steering on my 60, it does take more concentration while driving to keep it in its intended lane.

 

 Is this normal ?. 

 

I do know that my 60 has helper springs over the

  rear shocks.

Would this cause it to bounce?

 

Is it realistic to compare ( or expect) the same ride and handling from my 60 as my 67?

           Thanks in advance
