Thread: Saggin' Transverse Spring

  1. #1

    Saggin' Transverse Spring

    What parts do you guys use that have the transverse spring suspension to lift it up in the back? I got one on my 91 GP and it sags like you know what. Let know because everytime i look at it, it pists me off.

    I believe you can buy new pads for the spring perches. Should give it a bit of a lift.

    When I replaced my rear struts with gas charged ones the rear of the car perked up just a bit.

    ok i saw on the website a transverse isolator pad. do you know how they are installed and exactly how do they push up the height of the rear?

    isolator pad sounds like a pretty good technical term for it.

    I have a FE3 rear spring from my 95 GTP. And I can remove the spring from my Z34 parts car if u wanted one. I believe the Z34 spring is FE3 as well. Just change the spring and it will raise the car back up and give it a better ride. Or just cut a coil and a half off the front to level it out.

    Do NOT cut coil springs!!

    Very dangerous to begin with and ...well that is just GHETTO!

    Replace the insolators, or swap out the spring. Heck do both!
