Raising my 97 cobra

seamusohara · 11-03-2009, 11:43 AM

Does anyone know of a cheep way to raise the cobra 3-4 inches. I need to ship it back to the mainland from hawaii and all of the shippers require it to have at least 6 inches of clearance. The person I bought if from lowered it. Got any ideas of how to raise it just for the shipment?
Thanks

i would start with putting stock springs back on...see how high that gets you, if you know it still wont be high enough go buy 22's

Okay. Do you know of a website where I could buy some. Im not really looking to spend that much money as it is only going to be for the shipment.

Go to your local chain auto parts store and they should have something called spring spacers (probably in the towing section) not sure if it will get you where you need but cheaper and less of a headache than finding stock springs.
Out of curiosity how do they get stock Corvettes or Ferrari's to the mainland. I guarantee they are lower than your Mustang

^^^+1 that is what i was going to say? u cant ask a different shipper? anyways check out the classifieds here or look on ebay for some used springs or you might have better luck with some cheap spacer donuts, you see them on off road jeeps all the time, just slip it under the spring and their u go.
