ricky Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 hi i have a 1972 datsun 510. the owner before me cut the rear spring to lower it> now the rear tires are only wearing on the inside. also it rubs in the fender. i need to know where i can get taller springs for the rear. i like the car low but i think it needs to go up about an inch or two. thanks Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Get some rubber conveyor belt, even an old tire tread will do, and cut some round spacers and stack above the springs. This will raise the car but keep the firmness of the cut springs. Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 i have a pair of 10" springs (rate can be deciphered from them), almost new spring seats and a pair of KYB GR-2 shocks. work great on a DD! Quote Link to comment
