Ride Height

[junkpile]

69 Charger R/T with factory leaf springs and coil over shocks. I want to get the rear of the car up about an inch higher than it sits. I used to use air shocks and got the height I wanted but got tired of using them. The car handles great with the coil overs but the height was low, and I added leaf spring helpers. It raised the rear a little but not enough, and they really don't look good hanging under the springs.

Any ideas on how to raise the rear without a major change. The R/T springs were bough new about 15 years ago but the car does not get driven much.

Get a local spring shop to 're-arch them.

I run 2 456 super stock springs on my 68 coronet ...

Have them rearched, or buy a new set from ESPO. They will make them with -2", -1", stock, +1", or +2" ride height. Nice product and great people to deal with.

thanks. love the height on the cornet, that is what I am after. I will look at the super stock and the ESPO springs. I take it that the height will be 2" above stock on those to get the same look.

Thanks Guys
