Air Shocks

[butch27]

I have a model T rear spring on the bucket and wonder if air shocks would help the ride.
I have already taken a few leaves out

Won’t make it softer

Throw spring away and use just coil overs. And have a pan hard bar if you don't already.

Thought you don't need panhard with buggy spring.

You don't. But if you want a better ride-- then take the buggy spring out and just use the coil overs along with the pan hard bar you MAY have to install.

outta you and me
Post #3 by me was ass u mi ng you didn't have a pan hard bar.

Butch, what are you using now for shocks? Air shocks can be adjusted for ride height, and you can experiment with removing leafs of the buggy to get the action you want. Here's ones I've used: Gabriel | HiJackers® Shocks

The leaf spring is from CCR and is made for Buckets, it is 1-3/4" wide instead of 2"
The shocks are from Speedway for rear of T. BUT I am driving on Michigan roads
and they are destroyed this year..????

If you want air shocks get a pair from the late 70's - 80's chevy pickup they will work. Last time I bought the set from oreilys they were under 100 bucks
