The 1275 springs will raise the car just a bit. Stay away from 1500
springs or it will look like you have a set of air shocks under there.
If you look close, all (stock) 1098 1/2 leaf spridgets sat kind of low
in the back, I think BMC corrected this on the MKIVs with a properly
engineered pair of leafs. Same car, same weight give or take 5 lbs.

Too many Sprites (again)
