Global West's New Leaf Spring Technology Gives Late Model Handling
Upgrading the suspension on your classic car is a great way to get more out of your ride, and it’s no secret that forty year old technology doesn’t exactly match up with today’s standards. If you have been considering upgrading that archaic suspension of yours, take a look at the line up from Global West Suspension, which offers parts for most popular Ford and GM products that can drastically improve how well your car performs.

One of their newest products are performance rear leaf springs, which lowers your ride height for a more aggressive look while reducing if not completely eliminating wheel hop. Using special spherical bearings installed in the front and rear eyelets rather than bushings, the leaf springs are given enough leeway to feel almost just like an independent rear suspension. This is a cheaper way to reduce wheel hop without buying an actual independent suspension or welding on traction bars.
