    I just had my 69 Skylark changed over from regular drum to power front disk brakes. Boy what a difference. The only problem is that the front springs are sprung from the extra weight of a 455. The tie rod ends were worn pretty bad where they have been rubbing. Where is a good place to get heavier springs for a 69 Skylark convertible and will GS springs fit? :Do No:

    Yup! they were very helpful in my '66 spring search. However, their info didn't agree with the specs I found in the '66 Buick Assembly manual, so do your homework. They did match me up with what I was looking for. :TU:
    Price was about $68 a pair, same as Moog springs from RockAuto.com.
    Eaton Spring quoted me $165. :Do No:
