Default 68 Coupe ride height

I have a 68 coupe - 289-V8

It seemed to be riding low in the back, so I replaced the springs with stock springs (4 leaf) and new shocks (KYB gas-a-just). It still seems a little low in the back. What can I do? Different size tires in the back? thanks

Default RE: 68 Coupe ride height

this may not be the case, but it was on my '68. Someone had installed very stiff front springs for a big block, and the front end was so high it actually pushed the rear down lower than it should have been. I had installed new #620 springs in front , which lowered the front to a perfect height, and also cured the rear sagging problem, it sits fine, take a look at my avtar pic.
