    The rear coils on my 55 Buick are shot. What could I put in their place? Late model BOP springs? maybe something out of a stationwagon? the old hydraulic shocks have been rebuilt so I want to keep those. Any Ideas? Thanks!

    coils out od a intermediate GM wagon, 1980 or so will fit, and lower the back about 3"
