Subject: Re: Rear Air Shock / Air Bags ??

My wheel/tire combo fits under my fenders fine, but two passengers in the back will make the tires hit the top of the wheel well.  I have air shocks but only need to give it about 2 inches lift over unassisted ride height for proper clearance.  I am running the original springs, which must be sagging at least 2 inches, so I am hoping new springs, or maybe an extra arch will give me enough lift.  I don't think I'm over  50 pounds pressure on the air shocks, and  the ride is not bad.

Thanks for all of the good suggestions.  I've ordered a pair of air shocks that should be able to be temporary  help until I decide the permanent solution.

Hello,

My 64 SF is a little short on tire clearance when accelerating hard or I have weight in the trunk.

I'm not ready to buy tires or rims at this time.  I am considering a little help from air shocks or if necessary air bags.  I am just touching enough to slightly show on the tire sidewall and I see spots on the inside if each fender on the undercoating.  The springs were new about 8 years ago when we rebuilt the car.

I would appreciate any thought and suggestions.

Thanks
Dennis C.
