Probably not, but following standard industry practice no big deal adding a leaf or two in the rear as they did for the earlier LWB cars, and ditto for stiffer front coils. One problem was there was no Henney to make them, though Derham could have and probably a far higher cost. For a possible market of 100 cars, Packard didn't need another loss-leader and by 1956 management was pretty much full-time immersed in survival issues.
