Re: local source for weight jacks?

I use AFCO ajustable spring perched with AFCO springs. 1000lbs in fornt and 200 rear. for the street I owuls go with approx. 500 front and 150 approx and the corner weight it. The front spring perches sit on top of the springs in the stock location. The AFCO springs are shorter fit in the stock location with the perches. The rear perches are welded to the rear end in the stock location and the AFCO springs sit directly on top of them.
Any local stock car parts supplier has them and they are not expsensive.
Bicknells in St. Catherines, Griswals in Hamilton area, CSC in Newmarket.

I can take pictures once the car is out of storagein a couple of weeks.

Ours is not a direct bolt in.... we welded the nuts right in the top of the K-member. all of the stuff we used came from McCall's Racing here in London.
