What is the benefit of a dual-rate spring design?

A dual-rate spring uses two different spring rates. The primary rate is softer, helping to absorb everyday road imperfections for a more comfortable ride. The secondary rate is stiffer and engages during harder driving or larger impacts, providing better control and preventing bottoming out.

Will these springs fit my Nova with a small block engine?

These springs are specifically listed for big block engine applications. While they may physically fit a small block Nova, the spring rates are calibrated for the heavier big block, so performance and ride quality might not be optimal.

What else might I need to install these lowering springs?

When lowering a vehicle, it's often recommended to inspect and potentially upgrade other suspension components like shocks, ball joints, and bushings to ensure optimal performance and safety. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific recommendations.

Product Details

If you're working on a 1968-1974 Chevrolet Nova, especially one with a big block engine, and you want to improve its stance and handling, these front lowering springs from Ridetech are a solid option. They're designed to lower the front of your Nova by about 2 inches, giving it a more aggressive look and a lower center of gravity.

These aren't just standard springs; they feature a dual-rate design. This means they have two different spring rates working together. The primary rate helps absorb smaller bumps for a more comfortable ride, while the secondary rate engages during harder cornering or larger impacts to keep the suspension controlled. They're powder coated blue for a bit of underhood style and are built to handle the demands of a big block setup.

When installing these, remember they are designed to work with your existing front suspension components. You'll get a pair of springs in the box, ready to be installed on your Nova.
