Would leaf springs off of a 67 camaro fit right on a 73 Nova Custom? I have an offer to get them cheap and mine sag like there's no tomorrow. Please help!

I AGREE WITH SSNOVA2004. I HAVE A 69 NOVA AND I'M GETTING READY TO REPLACE THE LEAFSPRING. I'VE BEEN CHECKING AROUND A LOT OF PLACES AND THE BEST DEAL YET IS PERFORMANCE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS IN PHOENIX ARIZONA $190 FOR THE PAIR. HERE IS THE LINK http://www.performancesuspension.com/
WHEN I TALKED TO THEM THEY SAID FOR ANOTHER $75 I COULD GET POLY BUSHINGS AND PADS. THATS A SMOKING DEAL IF YOU ASK ME.

You might want to try your local truck service center. I bought a new set of 5 leaf springs for my Nova from Parts for Trucks for $65 each. I think they custom make them. Anyhow, they were perfect and were pretty cheap too.

go with new ones, i swaped my broken (very broken) ones for used z28 camaro springs and they are ALOT better but, there not new and they still sag and they ride like crap! SPEND THE MONEY ON NEW ONES you like them a whole lot better!
