Looking for some tips on how to get a little more height in the rear. I really want to get a more raked look on my 67. Air shocks are out of the question, so I guess it's springs and/or spacers. Looking to go up 1 to 2 inches, so I'm thinking spring spacers would be easiest. Looking for opinions from those that have faced the same. I appreciate the advice.
There are lift kits on eBay, basically just a 1 or 2 inch spacer. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-Rear-Bill...Parts_Accessories&hash=item19fc3df80a&vxp=mtr http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Rear-Axle...r_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c4f0ad993 But for the money, just get some new coil springs. Usually about $70 a pair.
Thanks for the link, been thinking of this too. I like the ride it has so i like the idea of being able to stack the spacers to get the height i want. A friend of mine with a 65GTO thought his was sagging in the rear and it sat the same way my Skylark sits. He opted for springs only to find it raised his car like 1/4" and you cant tell by eye, only by tape measure. So now he is thinking of these too. Better than to keep swapping around springs IMO.
For a 64-66 use can make spacers out of alum or steel plate and stack them. '67 is harder since the spring sits on/around a raised pad.... earlier ones had a flat surface the spring sits on.
