Hey everyone, I want to raise the rear end of my 67 Sport Fury Plymouth, I am open to ideas.

New leaf springs made to order. How high... How hard..

Google Springs and things and tell them you heard about them here.

Here is a good reference on stance. This is an inch over factory. I bought my springs from Springs and Things too. They fit perfectly, and the easiest thing I replaced/restored on the entire car.

These are with the factory springs and a set of Monroe overload shocks. It just adds a tiny little bit of bustle in the butt...

For reference, here's what happens with an extra main leaf added to the factory springs. I now run shorter tires in the rear to compensate for this and lower the rear from this pic.

When you buy springs, you can order them with an extra leaf (one extra leaf = factory "heavy-duty" springs) and with stock height thus not raising the car noticeably.
