anyone know any place to get some decent single mono leafs for a 69 camaro that will lower the height like 2 inches or more. ? im finding only multi leafs for some reason. i want to get some decent springs under the back of my other 69 so it rides a lil better and to lower it some so i can drive it while i finish my other camaro

It is not a sought after part so there is a limited market for them.

yeah i know . its got s single spring 10 bolt under it now and if the wind blows is bounces i was hoping for something better for now so i can drive it a lil until im ready to drag a 12 bolt up from the shop and rebuild it and keep the cost down some.
they would be perfect drag rear springs they transfer swsomely .lol

Here is a way to use any multi you want for long term and still use your current axle short term.

There was a set of fiberglass monoleafs in the for sale section. They won't lower it, but blocks will! I had similar springs and was pleased,

My glass springs lower the car about 1.5" from stock, but I think the minimum available spring rate is 180 lbs/in.

fwiw... I think I saw a "performance" "lowering" monoleaf in the Year One Camaro catalog that I picked up last weekend. Terry
