    Posies makes a good spring. I have a SoCal chassis and currently have a Chassis Engineering spring in front and an Eaton spring in back. Both came from SoCal.

    Ride wise, I think the Posies "Super Slider" would be an improvement. But they have stamped circular slider pockets that detract from the traditional look that SoCal is noted for.

    Posies makes a super low spring that should help you get down a bit.

    The picture shows a Posies spring that I am using on my current project. I have sinced detailed the spring by grinding the ends to match the radius of the cups. You can get a spring from Posies that has been detailed this way and you can also get one that has been chrome plated.

    I am a bit leary of the mono springs. They dont look right on a traditional rod and failures have been reported.
