1984 Z28 rear lift
Hi guys. I am looking to lift the rear of my '84 Z28 by an inch or so. What is the best and cheapest way to do this? I am hoping to spend under $200 and I don't want to use any of that airlift stuff, because I don't need it to be adjustable. Thanks!

OEM springs will raise your car back up the 2" or so that it's sagging right now.

Re: 1984 Z28 rear lift
Two choices: The Moog CC635's which are a variable-rate spring (cargo) or the Moog 5665's which are linear. I used the latter and the car sat so high I was forced to trim. If you wish the car to sit even higher, use fourthgen isolators for another inch or so. Both springs can be had from auto supply stores or online.

Coil spring spacers are a cheap option: http://www.summitracing.com/search/P...spring+spacers
