Rear spring and front ride height
Will replacement of the rear leaf spring on my '73 affect the ride height (tire to wheel well top) clearance of the front?
I am about to replace my original rear leaf spring, but I also have a low clearance front left and I am hoping the rear spring will make some difference to even it up. (3/4" drivers side front low relative to the others and just slightly low DS rear).

Unless you really jack the back up high and throw more weight up front, it's not going to do much to the front ride height. Even with the rear up high, it would have very little effect up front.
