I had Fleetwoods with SS springs, 9c1 springs, and Sprint springs. The best ride/handling I found was with SS springs in the front/9c1 springs in the rear and Hotckiss sway bars.

When I had SS springs all around, the rear would sag when there were rear passe
Spring options for a Fleetwood
Ok so I looooove cushy feel of floating down the road, but man, my wagon feels like a porsche in the corners compared to the FW......
I do have a set of 9C1 springs about, but somewhere in my distant past I heard of folks putting SS springs in too.
Would the SS springs drop the ride height? If so, assuming I'd need different shocks too. Any other considerations?

Second vote for SS springs in front and 9C1 rear. Made huge change in handling and I like the appearance. I upgraded the shocks to bilsteins at same time too. Probably ran about 40K kms on this setup and very pleased.
