seattlejester Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Do you mean sag? The only way to really get rid of it with your given setup, without getting adjustable height suspension, would be to buy an aftermarket or stock spring and cut away at the fronts or add a rubber cushion in the rear to raise it up. http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/88025-installing-tokico-280z-hp-springs-in-a-240z/ ^There's an example of how to even out your springs using a little thought. Alternatively you can experiment with using a 240z top hat up front for the lower height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Chevrolet Chevette springs. Been discussed here many times. Search and you'll get the Moog part numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) God Forbid the thought of Datsun Parts in old stock... Has anybody tried that? My favorite remedy is to take 2+2 springs and cut coils. You don't sag. But it's not a stock spring rate...muahahaha! Custom Wound Springs are not difficult to get either.
