02 Monte Carlo rear suspension help


Recommended Posts

Not sure if any one can help but all info is greatly appreciated.

I have a 2002 Chevy Monte Carlo SS

i have my system installed with the 3 batteies and subs and enclosure installed it weighs prob at most 400 lbs more in trunk.

my question is what can i do to lift it back up to factory level as it sags from the wieght

i put rubber spacers in the coils but the only last few weeks until they split.. i have contacted monroe and midas places and tehy say they donot make any bigger coils i can replace even GM said

they dont make them bigger.

my coils are most likely original as i havent replaced them since ive had car for 3 yrs.. my quickest fix is to get new coils and shocks but i would like something stronger so they wont eventually sag again

thanks for any and all help

air shocks, it will ride more rigid than it does now, but will solve your problem for relatively cheap
