Well Liner Spring - 66 San Jose
« on: May 22, 2015, 07:45:46 PM »
Hi All

I have a 66 GT Convertible built in Oct 65,  while going my score sheet I had received a deduction for no Well Liner tension springs.  When I was researching this part I noticed there are couple of different types 1x set of Long tension springs and the other has both a Short & Long tension springs which is a cross over part of the 66 model year I believe.

Therefore, which set is the correct tension spring set I should use.

Thanks
Herman
