It's about 2 inches lower with the kids in back. This was not really a problem unless you've seen my driveway approach. It's a steep angle and the street has sunk about 2 inches over the past few years and won't get repaved for many years. When I back out, the tailpipe and mudflaps drag across the ground. Getting the driveway reagraded to the street level would be not only expensive but would probably make it worse. I put 205/70/R14 snow tires in back and this sort-of worked. I replaced the rear shocks last summer with KYB gas shocks and wondered about putting 245 wagon springs in back. Would this raise the rear up. IPD sells overload springs that MAY raise the rear up, but if you include shipping that's also an expensive option (I'm really on a tight budget)and it may not even make a difference. Would 240 wagon springs raise it up? Does anyone have a pair they want to sell cheap, maybe from someone whoo lowered theirs. Are there any other springs that would work maybe a 260 sedan or even a 740? Ben Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.
