Car too low and hitting with speed reductors

[josehf34]

Guys my '74 fury is right now too low and sometimes it hits with speed reductors on the road, my tires are 235/60R15 and I'm going to swap them for a set of 235/70R15 but I think the height difference will not be enough to avoid this problem

I don't want to increase my car height using torsion bar because I really like how it looks being low, I was thinking if there's any kind of adjustable air shocks out there, maybe something that I can push a button and the car will raise up a little to pass the speed reductors without problems and then let it go to the original height.

We're gonna want pics!!

Aside from adjusting the torsion bars, I don't think there is a lot you can do about it. I just try to avoid speed bumps and certain driveways. One of the guys here has hydraulics on his c-body but I think it was a full custom made set up. You should be able to do something in the rear though. Air ride or hyros since its leaf springs.

But still, we like pics!!

I would be interested in seeing a pic of your car to see how low it is.

Well I sure hope you post plenty of pics! I would love to see a C body air ride setup.

Sorry guys I've been a lot of busier due to work.

Here's a pic of my car, I know is not too low but low enough to hit on some pretty big speed reducers

So, what can I do? what can be my options?
