I think I may have found the correct front coil springs. Thanks to all of you that helped me in my hunt. Once I got the old springs out it was clear that somewhere along the way somebody cut out a coil. I am not sure how I would have gotten them out otherwise.

Now I need to get them installed. I have gotten the coil spring compressor and compressed them a couple of different times but they are either not compressed enough or bending in the wrong direction. There must be something I am missing.

Please help. By the way, it is a 71 Camaro front end in a 1937 Cadillac with a big block(454).

Thanks, Jay
