Okay, I just picked up my 67 convertible. I've had 3 others, and from past experience, I know they all have very low suspension. What are some good ways to get the car up off the ground. In the past I left them low. but this one, I would like to raise up a bit.

If they're old and sacked out -yes. I had to replace mine when it was only 25 years old. Yours are now almost 40?

I had to replace teh ones on my f-150 at 10 years (but we hauled lawn stuff and tractors with it).

If that doesn't solve it, you can use blocks, or add a leaf.

I'll check what the ride height is suppose to be, my last 67 sat low....but it was intentional. I had somewhat of a road racer look to it.
This one I want up about an inch or two.

Okay, found 4 leaf springs, easy fix will raise height 1.5"
thanks
