|headscratch| What would you go with,TRW or VB&P composite rear mono spring? I plan on going with Bilsteins or Delco Reactecs for shocks. |smile| |wavey| |saluteflag| |saluteflag|

Vette(s): 1976, ZZ4 crate motor, B&M street/strip TH350, 81 seats & rear bumper, ton's of new and chromed goodies.
I personally have used the VB&P stuff with no complaints. It is top quality stuff with a first rate company behind them. It's more of a "Mom & Pop" operation, in that they offer much more personalized service to any questions.

Good luck

Vette(s): 1979 Black on Black, heavily modified. 1975 Orange, bone stock (for now).
No matter which spring you choose it's way forward from the ol' steel leaf pack. As for the shock go for Bilstein, they are much better shocks that ACDelco's hands down |cheers|

Vette(s): 78 Silver Anniversary (2 Tone) L82 auto loaded
When I did the rear in my 78 I called Vette Brakes
and talked to a realy on top of things technician-
Robin he told me that the TRW springs with a higher
spring rate raise the back of the car and the VB+P
springs don't.I bought a 360 lb/in spring and I love
it. I think I will probably die of kidney failure
from the hard ride but the car stays flat in corners.
I also added their 3/4 inch rear sway bar and the
Delco shocks-these guys know the car. Don't pass-up
these shocks. They are a bargin!
