Finally got my 74 Gran Torino Station Wagon Springs in the car! When I installed my air shocks when I first built the car I was happy with the rake, but now they are worn in I replaced the 40 year old tired springs with the new Moog ones! Only $100cdn a pair and about 1/2 hour time

Nice, I will be adjusting my rake in the spring. I've raised it 2 inches already but it needs more.

👍🏻 I saw some other fellas using the station wagon springs. Spring rate is better ( I have kids and didn't want the car to sag! ) and along with the Monroe Air Shocks I like the look!

That thing sits real nice. I am a bit fan of wagon springs as well. One of my rancheros has 74 Lincoln town car springs up front and 74 Lincoln Mark cargo springs in the rear. That gives it a "high boy" look. Your car look great very nice looking ride!

Thank you! Some love it while others don't. Your car looks great and I imagine still rides nice. mine will ride a little bit more like a truck on certain roads, But it is not really no worse than riding in a f 150. Take care Dan
