Subject:      ride height/saggy butt -- my fix
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello,

I checked out all the fixes put forth towards this and thought if I am going to spend the time building something why not just toss a set of late model springs under the thing and be done with it...

That my friends is what I did, 90' Carat springs $50.00 at a domestic wrecking yard and it's almost three inches lower that original. It handles significantly better and I no longer pray when I'm pulling into my garage that I miss the door/header.

In doing this I found out a really cool thing for those that live near an Autozone store. They have a tool rental that comes out to free. Pay a deposit, use the tool, return the tool, get a refund... pretty cool.

Anyway, that's my story & am really happy with how it all turned out.

Brian from Salem
