Are you looking for a very soft ride or what? I don't know of anyone who sells them, but I would try someone like Sears.

I think he's only looking for a little more rear ride height, possibly to clear tires that may be getting pushed outward with wheel spacers (that a separate thread suggests he might be thinking about).


I'd really rather see a ride height issue corrected with either the right (i.e. longer and/or stiffer) springs or adjustable spring perches. I don't have it handy, but I think that Mathis' Mustang Performance 2 book has plans for a LCA mod to do this.

And wheel/tire position issues should be corrected with wheels of the necessary offset without putting the tires at or out past the sheetmetal.

For I have yet to see the thread of which you speak



Would be helpful to have some of the background leading to this question

No offense to ovenman, just that some posts or threads I see are red flags for doing a little background research first. Happens fairly frequently, actually.


Spacer thread.

Another more-than-likely-related thread.

it is for ride adjust the tires are inside of the body i didnt look into springs but that is another option thanks

What tires are you currently running (all three numbers please) and what wheels are you running (if not OEM, I need off-set/diameter and width). Take a look at your other two threads Norm linked above

EDIT: Thanks, Norm, but was actually refering to the OP giving some background info

I wouldn't run a air shock on a unibody.There is kits that put a air bag inside the rear coil spring.That way is safe the more air the more lift and stiffer it gets.
