My rear coil springs on my 71 chevelle are pretty well shot. I am now in the market for replacing them. I would like to have the rear end 'slightly' raked. The only thing keeping a nice stance was pumping my airshocks up. Otherwise the rear end was low. My brother recommended getting Monroe Sensatrac BB coil springs(having a SB 350) for the rear end only. I'm only looking to have the rear end about 2-3 inches higher than the front end. Anyone have any idea how that would look, or if that's a stupid idea?

If you springs are totally shot now, a new reguler set of springs will probably raise it 2 inches. The wagon springs will raise it higher still.

Replace the air shocks with regular gas ones- and then Put AirLift Air bags in the back. They will lift the back about .5" to 1" at about 10lbs- And if you valve them separatly, they will also help with your cornering.

You want the air lift 1000 kit.
Should be about $70 or so through summit or Jegs.

I have some wagon springs that I'd be happy to sell you cheap- how's $20 + shipping? I decided to go back to a lower stance, and installed lower ones last month. If you want them, shoot me an email at bobc@gnttype.org
