    That's excellent, Dan. With prices like that, no Maverick or Comet should be saggy...

    The 4-leafs I got from JCW made the car sit level. Did not jack up the rear at all. I'm thinking it's the shackles people are using that cause the rear to raise up high. I used stock shackles...

    For those that say it did not jack up the rear ... did it increase the ride height from the original springs that you replaced?

    My originals were sagging. The new 4-leafs returned the car to level height. There was no "rake" to it. I cut a coil from the front springs to produce the desired "rake"...

    I ordered the springs on 4/30/06 .... JCW estimated a ship date of 05/14/06 .... I went home for lunch and they were sitting on my doorstep! That was fast! :)
