I removed my stock rear springs to put in the new Eibach's. I ran into a little snag. the stock springs are pig tailed on both ends and the Eibach's are not, they are only pig tailed on one end. After lookin a little closer I think the larger part of the upper spring cup will hold the Eibach spring.

Has any one else had this problem. Please advise

Yes, the larger end goes up. If you look close there is a raised section that the spring fits. It would be a good idea to run a limiter strap with those springs. I used a set made for a 4th gen Camaro.

post a picture to show the spring sitting by the cup to make sure it is OK, you dont want that popping off while driving down the road. Using the straps as a back up is a good idea. It should work but if you post a picture someone up here will be able to tell you if it looks right.

The pigtailed on one end spring is for a 65, 66 and up take pig tail at each end. Send them back and get the right stuff.

They (Eibach) say these are the right ones. I'm using them. I also had some replies to post on Chevelles.net and Pro-touring.com that said they would work.

Thanks for the replies guys your input is Greatly Appreciated !:thumbsup:
