Rear SAG

[HOTSIX]

Just installed the Hotchkis springs front and rear. I have new shocks and struts as well.

So I had this sagging problem in the rear end..before the spring change. I change out the springs - still have it.

The rear sits way too low...almost like you have old worn out springs...which I did until the swap.

Is there some helper thing (rubber or otherwise) you can get put in there that will raise the ass end up so its at least level with the front...and not almost eating my rear tire?

Actually, the problem is the front sitting too high.

The Hotchkis and Eibach kits were really designed for the V8 G-Bodies. That plant weighs in about 150lbs more than the L7. Less load on the front springs results in less compression, and the front sits higher.

You can cut a coil off the fronts to drop it, or change to a shorter spring.

Mr. Gasket has/makes a 1" rubber coil spring spacer

They are about $15~$20, and should accomplish what you desire.
