lifting the rear end options

im trying to figure out any options for lifting the rear of the 82 ws7

air shocks ?
but would be stiff as hell?
and heavier

modifying and raising the spring mounts on the axle tubeS ?

i dont have any taller tires, and taller springs also cost wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much - and are heavier when i am trying to cut weight- not add more

it seems like these early third gen v8 cars had the worst weakest springs of all the third gens

were there any rear springs stiffer ?

v6 ones ?

later ones ?

anything ?

anyone know of any stock ones for sale that are stiffer ?

i need to get my rear end off the pavement, by alot, its practically laying on the ground its so bad

its annoying


thanks for anything
