Its all new to me again...

I'm buying this 63 Impala like I mentioned in my intro, The thing is I haven't really done any "customizing" since the early 80s. One of the things I want to do is lift up the rear end just a touch..
My question is, what would be used today to lift my rear w/o rebuilding the suspension, do they still make air shocks?..Thanks JQ

 

Air/Lift bags fit inside your rear coils. http://www.airliftcompany.com/index.php

 

gabriel air shocks for about $69 a pair with the lines. local parts store probably has some gathering dust on the shelf.

 

Up? You know we are going the other way now, right?

Things have changed since the 80's.

 

Well I'm not talkin like Joe Dirt rear end up, just a little past level

 

Fresh springs. HD rear springs can be found at your local NAPA, for under $120, for the pair.

So $70 to fix it the wrong way, or $120 to fix it the right way.

I detest air shocks.

 

reminds me of my teen years in the 60s I saw many like that around here.

 

thanks gimpy, I was looking at airbags also. I'm starting to find places in vegas thru here, this sight and you guys are golden, thanks

 

Bagging that car would be pretty easy, in comparison to most. Still a bit of work, but nothing the average Joe can't pull off. If you can run a decent bead, and manage a tape measure, you can do it!
