Superbird hood pop up spring question

[FJ5WING]

Could someone please measure their pop up spring to see how tall it is, As well as counting the number of rings to the spring?

TIA!!!!

If no one gets to it before I get home, I'll do it..... I have a set free and can take some pictures/measurements........

[FJ5WING]

I did IT again!

Im sorry Troy, I didn't specify which spring I was referring to.

I would like information on the hood pop up spring.

Springs have coils, not rings...just sayin'.

I was told they just used the one off a 70 rr when they put the sb front end on.

The Superbird hood release pop-up spring (2935 375) is listed in the 1970-71 parts book under Group 15-11-16.  There, the book says that particular P/N fits 1970-71 E-bodies, 1970-71 DODGE B-bodies and all 1970-71 C-bodies (1969 full-size Chrysler models too, if that matters) -- but not 1970 B-body Plymouths for some strange reason.  The next year, 1971 Plymouth B-bodies got the 2935375 spring, but for 1970 the rest of the Plymouth B-bodies just haaaaad to be different.

Thanks Dave!

That's useful information....but unfortunately it dosent help identify what spring I have in my hand.


so my quest to find the specs of an original goes on.

Bill TO THE RESCUE!

That Bill sure is one heck of a nice guy!

I'll be working on getting all the rear brake hardware cleaned and ready to reinstall today......hopefully that's what I'll do. Once I hit the shop I can get sidetracked pretty easily.
