Our car still has good ride height in the back, so I simply replaced the bushings and re-installed the stock spring. On bumpy roads the ride quality isn't the greatest... but it is a '70s Vette. If the spring goes in it, I would probably switch over to a fiberglass monoleaf.
I installed a reman p/s control valve on our car. It's weeping just the slightest bit after only 2-3 years of being on the road. I think Stainless Steel Brakes (or something like that) is supposed to have a good replacement unit that has better then stock seals.
