69 Coil Spring Seat Rubber pad or Not ?
« on: February 23, 2025, 10:35:20 AM »
I am trying to confirm that the original FOMOCO coil spring seat from the factory did not come with the rubber pads that are seen on service replacements and repops.  I have not found much info on this topic and was wondering if anyone knows?  I recently had my original front suspension restored to put back on the car and need to make sure its correct. 

Thanks !

69 had no rubber pads on the spring perch from the factory.
