My 88 has a 3/4 drop. From the moment I installed it I hated how it sat: too low in the rear. I know to remedy this I can just put lowering springs in the front but I really don't want to go any lower for fear of damaging my rare GT ground effects. What are my options? Here is what I've thought:
1. Take out the flip kit and just remove some leaf springs.
Anyone ever do this? How low will it take me? How's the ride?
2. Add leaf springs to the current flip kit.
Won't this actually lower my truck more?
3. Buy new leaf spring
Maybe the old springs are just worn?
4. Install adjustable air shocks
This was my initial remedy to the solution but I'm awfully unfamiliar with them.
What's my best option? I'm wanting better stance but I'm also hoping to go 300whp with my 2.3 turbo project (so no air ride).
