So I got the wondermous KYB Gas-Ajust on the 66 and with out the air shocks it looks like Rosie O'Donnel is in the trunk!

I like the rake to go forward not back.

So where can I get a good priced set of leafs that will put the back above the front?

Thanks Rosie has to go

I was just reading Mustang Monthly and the add for American Pony showed a pair of 4 leaf w/ 1 1/2" lift for $95. I think that's what I need to fit some taller rear tires.

You dont REALLY want to put lift springs on do you? Standard springs will make her sit proud again, lift springs go well with real wide slotted mags and big fat bias ply 50 series ties sticking out of the wheel openings.

According to the ad the lift springs make the car sit level not the traditional ass on the ground front in the air mustang stance.

Personally I choose to cut 1/2 off of a coil from the front springs. That lowered the front and then it sat a bit more level.

Get the stock springs with an extra leaf, it will look level. I know from experience.

Just buy new rear leaf springs. The KYB hard as a rock shocks in the front can be literally pushing down your rear end.
