Reply to "Shockers and suspension setup."

joules"Racing is Life, anything before or after is just waiting" - Steve McQueen

The 400/650 F/R is quite a common setup as sold by Hall for many years (do you have 2.5" dia. springs or the large 4"?). IMO for street driving its too stiff and the 350/550 is more appropriate. More importantly it is somewhat worrying that you can get visible 'bounce' with those spring ratings, the car should be so stiff you can hardly move it, indicating an issue with dampeners not the springs.

Maybe it wasn't the springs originally but the shocks as Aldens are good shocks when functional but notorious for leaking as they are basically hot rod shocks. Maybe remove the springs and see what sort of resitance you have in the dampener. Alden offer a rebuild service for them if you send the shock bodies to them.
