thanks, the back end is sitting up more now, added air shocks due to the bending leave springs, but she is a beauty even with her bad repair jobs from the previous owner

Yikes. Air shocks are a bad idea. The shock mounts are not designed to take the weight of the car. You will rip the upper mounts out of the body and/or punch a hole (or two) into the trunk. You would be better off in the short and long run putting normal shocks back on and replacing, rearching, or adding a leaf to the rear leaf springs.

hmmm, well when i got them i knew it was going to be short term, i will either replace them here in a few weeks or before spring *i cant even drive it yet... so basically i got over six months until heavy driving is going to ensue*

so i will definitely look into the cost of all that and decide when it is going to happen
