hey guys and gals just needing some advice. Well i have a 71 fastback, and when i bought it the prior owner put air shocks in the back. well i was told this was a bad thing but i like the stance it has so what is the best way to get the same stance but get ride of the air shocks, or is there a way to keep them but make it better?

buy lift springs, or use blocks to lift it upor put shackles on it.... but get rid of those air shocks before you are rewelding the trunk floor!

 

i took a look under the car and all the equipment for the springs is gone all that is there is the leaf springs and those shocks. but it does have shackles that stick down that he used to lower the leaf springs

 

id bet your leafs are pretty worn out...a new set of those along with your shackles and you should be set. how much pressure are you running in your air shocks? they might not even make that much of a difference in ride height.

 

Get a set up lift leaf springs, a set of normal shocks, and ditch the drop shackles...

If you are still running the original leafs, they have had it. New leafs will make the car ride higher. If you still think you want it higher, then you can re use the drop shackles or blocks.
