    Yeah, I know how it is. Had some split ends last week, didn't want to leave the house.

    Here is what Speedway says:


    CARRERA COIL-OVER
    REAR SHOCK KIT
    The finest street rod coilover shock available, featuring Carrera's patented, hyper-charging™ process. All pieces are beautifully chrome plated.
    Kit consists of:


    2 Carrera chrome steel adjustable shocks

    2 chrome coil-over springs

    polished aluminum spring mounting hardware


    They also provide a rate chart, based on the weight of your rear end (actually the car's rear end) , and I think, from memory a typical deuce needs like 175 or 180 # units.

    I have also seen Aldans name thrown around, and maybe some of our guys who buy coilovers regularly can offer an opinion. I have only bought two sets in my life, both from Total Performance, so I am no expert.

    Here is their chart.
