i have an 89 daytona and i want to hop up the ass of my puppy just for looks! so, i was wondering should i just go and get used springs that are bigger or should i just get the ones i have now stretched?

there is a guy on cardomain that has tall springs on the back of his nice lebaron (fwd). i e-mailed him about the setup and he said it was 400 bucks through jcwhitney! he said they had a very firm ride ~ never have to worry about draggin your rear while hauling groceries or a boat trailer, etc!!

I used trw# cc711 springs and it does about a 3-4" lift in the ass end of a daytona. Their about $70cdn, I cut mine to attain a slightly lower than stock ride height but to be stiffer for launches.

dynasty rear springs are stiffer than any daytona springs short of a shelby, and they are 9 bucks a piece where im at. or you could get moog 'cargo coils' for like 45 bucks a pair from your local auto parts store, tho i remember reading of a guy who switched to eibachs because the cargo coils were so ****ed harsh!!

thats saying something i think. a set of air shocks is around 60 bucks and is good for a slight raise or for the dragstrip. good luck whichever way you go.
