    Spring selection is relative to axle and width.

  4. I believe that he as asking about the rear spring. It really depends how low you want it to sit. I am not familiar with putting a T or A spring in a 32 but in a model A a reversed eye A spring will lower it about an inch and a T spring will lower it about 3 I believe. My car currently has a reversed eye A spring but I am going to put a T spring in it soon

    My avatar car has a T rear spring sitting on a stock A rear end. The T spring is lower by several inches which is why I chose to use it. I can't see either one interfering with the qc unless you have some body stuff hanging down there.
