Spindle and coil spring questions
My 66 burb was lowered. I think they may have used shortened coils. Coils are 13/16" diameter and 11 3/8" tall. Are they shorter than stock ones? Do the spindles look like standards or dropped? Measures about 1 3/4" from bottom to center of spindle.

Re: Spindle and coil spring questions
Spindles are stock. With springs it is real hard to tell be length and coil diameter what they are. Some have a number on them to help ID them.

Re: Spindle and coil spring questions
Spindles are definitely stock drum brake ones. Hard to say on the springs. They look like dropped springs but the amount would be hard to know. Two springs of the same unloaded height but different diameter coils, will have different drop heights.
