rear springs
I used the rear springs from a `72 Dodge Dart on my `47 Coupe( been using this for about 10 yrs. now). You need to get the front and rear spring hangers with the springs,also,the upper & lower shock mounts. Rotate the frt. hanger 90 degrees( so the studs face up) cut a piece of 1/4" plate about 12" long to fill the gap between the outer frame rail and rear of the X member. Bolt the plate in the gap and bolt the frt hanger there( 8-10" from V). Use the stock arch in the spring to locate the rear hanger. Locate the upper shock mount at a 20 degree angle on the old spring cross member.This is a cheap almost bolt in swap.
Good luck!
