Raising suspension

Post by excalibur »

Anyone done this?

I am thinking of fitting some larger wider wheels on the rear and jacking the suspension up along with flared rear arches.

The plan is to have fat rubber on the back and skinny on the front.

I have never been a fan of low profiles or understated customising. My brand of customising is about being different and in your face. So any ideas on how to go about jacking the @rse end up?

can;t be done easily!! if you fit syncro springs it will sit to high for the drive shafts! the only way of doing it will be to pack out the coil base! this may result in the spring warping/twisting or sliping out!! the only other way i can think of acchieving the look you are after is to lower the frount end!
