Raising the rear end
I've seen plenty of rear end lowering kits everywhere, but I can't seem to find anything for RAISING the rear end. I'm only looking for about 1" to 2". Is there a kit for this or is there another method?

Do a Shelby drop in front & improve the handling in the process.

I had a 6 leaf spring made at a local shop price was good and the ride sweet. 1 leaf extra = 1 in, or they can re-arc them to give you an inch....

If you have the orignal leaf springs on your car. Just putting new leaf springs will raise your car 1 1/2. I use 4 1/2 leaf springs Mid eyes.

Thanks for the advice guys, sounds like new springs should take care of what I need.
Now that I've finally got her back from the body shop, I should be able to post pics in a day or two. |
