Re: Smoothest riding Cadillacs ever?

Personally I dont think much can beat a 94-96 Fleetwood brougham..... Just my opinion....

Ive never ridden in a old school caddy, but those big old boats have to ride nice.....

Elwesso, I think that's the first thing you were ever right about.

Don't speak too soon . I kid, I kid . I'll say this. After owning both they both have thier good and bad. My 60 has awsome ride comfort but handeling is non exsistant. My 95 had great power potential. This one is kind of limited. But when it comes to overall cool factor, I think the 60 wins. But there will always be a whole in my heart that only my 95 can fill (sniff)

I imagine the broughams from my year and even the newer ones had a smoother ride from being bigger and probably more softly sprung. What do you guys think?
I miss my 91 deville it was the best car! untill september when i got into an accident. Now I have a 1997 cadillac concours and for some reason my 91's seats were more comfortable, but my 97 steers better.





I was featured in Lowrider Magazine with that car......ahhhhh memories......

Yeah I'm kinda curious what mines gona be like once I get my 20 inch steelies and bags on it. Although, I've had good experience with my bags and low pros befor. So I'm hoping I'll land heads up again. Then again, when you drop frame at 60mph you really can't complain too much .

Re: Smoothest riding Cadillacs ever?

i am not going to put bags on my car till I have a back-up ride. I can't wait though. That thing will be sitting on the ground as soon as I can get another car. I mean , my car is still smooth. But the dubs certainly make a difference. Not to mention the bags are going to be even worse for the ride itself I think

OK, first off, you don't need another car. If you're worried about reliability, don't be. Good systems last well over 100k miles when done properly. Secondly, why do you think it'll be worse? You're spending too much time with the rice boys. Give me your car for 1 wekend. I'll have that thing sit'n frame and riding as comfortable as it does now. Granted, I don't sleep that weekend, but it gets done. With the right setup that car can retain very close to stock ride. In some cases better, but heavy cars like these need big bags. The biggest mistake I made was wasting $800 on a pair of shockwaves and drop spindels for my Fleetwood. That and being cheap and running water cooler hose instead of air line. Long story, leason learned . 2500lbs bags aren't enough fo those cars and the spindels didn't give it enough travel. So it got a little bouncy when it was aired up. Now 2600lbs bags and relocated shocks done right, Solid. Good shocks help too. If you're not into a stupid fast system, you can make these things really comfy. For me 3/8 line and ports is perfect. Even then they fall like bricks when you air down. And when they hit it hurts. Your kidneys will not be happy with you. Honestly, there's compromises in everything, but done right it can be brought to a minimum.

Re: Smoothest riding Cadillacs ever?

hey Sandy, what makes you say a 93 60 special; isnt it the exact same ride as a regular deville? Also, the cars u mentioned ride smoother than your town car??
