Bottoming Out

[ponypastor]

To cure my 1971 Mach 1 SCJ from bottoming out so easily, I removed the leaf springs and installed a new set of springs, bushings, and bolts from Eaton Springs in Detroit. The car does ride a bit stiffer, but still seems to bottom out in rear way too easily. New shocks installed a year or so ago. Wondering if these ponies require extra heavy duty shocks in rear. What experience have you had?

In my green Sportsroof, I made a mistake and placed new Monroe Shocks....these had me bottoming out at the front - they also turned my 71 into a waterbed

I re-loaded with KYB - a bit more expensive ... but definitely a better ride

at rear I put gas adjustable to raise the rear 1"

Could you share the part #s for ordering kyb? also the the rear shocks? 

Thanks
