This was sent to me from Robert.   This is what I did to the rear of my g60 to give a 3 to 4  inch lift (with longer shackles) to a stock ride height. This depends a bit on the coils used. The coils were from an old road car,the round section is pipe with a collar mounted on it welded onto 3 x 1/4 flat with threaded rod anchoring it in place on the bottom and the top has two 3/8 bolts securing it to the chassis This photo shows the anti roll bar still there but I have since removed it This mod really improved the ride of the vehicle and for about 30 bucks of parts it is a cheap one too Can you stick this onto forum pls. Ps there is a nylon ring between the spring and the steel to stop squeeks but I dont know if it it actually does anything This doesnt squeek but I havent tried it without them to test
