Re: back spring and shock mount rebuild.

Raising top spring mount will lower car by 2" .. unless you are fitting longer springs?

I went with LWB heavy duty springs as the nearest to a 461 heavy rear spring.. no more rear sagging as the spring rate is a fair bit more.. those Lesjorfors are for SWB rear van (and most swb 461/463) = 816 lbs/in = +71% on std swb 460.
