Need to raise my rear end, what do I do??

Stang_ROTY · 08-13-2001, 11:34 AM

Now that I have a chance to drive the car I noticed that the rear end needs to be raised a little bit to prevent my tires from rubbing the fender. The lips have already been removed. My suspension is much different than on a stock 5.0. There are no quadrant shocks, and there are adjustable lower control arms. The springs in the front and back are Eibach, and the front end is actually higher than the rear(something I'm not to thrilled about) I'd like to level the car out.

If you get some new rear spring isolators that should do the trick. I had a sagging problem with my '88 GT and it turned out the isolators were bad. If new ones don't do the trick, maybe you can double them up... just a thought...
Good luck!
