I can't find anything vehicle specific, so custom springs will likely be needed. Or call one of the companies that make air shocks and see if they can help you. Many name brands like Monroe make them (but not for the Saab LOL)

Try universalliftkits.com for the springs. Yes whether you do doughnut booster or longer springs the ride will be harder . But then if you do helper bags the ride might be bouncier.. With that much weight back there it's not really possible to find options to lift the back up and majorly improve ride quality at the same time. I suggested the most economic solution. There are other ways to do it but all of them are custom work. If you don't have experience with suspension and you have enough money I'd suggest taking the car to a suspension shop to have them do it. Whether you fix it yourself or pay someone one thing is for sure. you will definitely need an alignment once it is done . When control arms and trailing arms are flexed too much it creates camber . And having your wheels cambered eventually leads to toe issues ..I'd do the doughnuts 1st tho ., the cheapest option

You need trunk space to get groceries and shit...bitches love groceries

Im no suspension guru.

But, ive seen a few peeps add a helper inside of the coil.

Like Carbon did on his honda rear springs. Its a bag, that is installed in the coil/spring.

It has a schrader valve. You blow it up to what you want, and off ya go. :shrug:

Maybe call airlift or the others, and see what they can do ?!?!

well...anyways, If i have a hollow space in the coil can i use helper bags?

I love how everyone seems to be dancing around these. FYI, I'm ordering the airlift 1000 helper bags either this week or next. My veloster is dragging ass bad with 600+ lbs in the back. I've heard nothing but good things about those bags. I can't really comment on the ride quality but I do know it will lift that rear right up and they are very inexpensive too.

Yeah i would do like Slinky is doing.. the Airlift 1000. Probably run you around 80 bucks and easy to put in. Just a air bag that goes inside your springs and connected with a hose that u can mount in your trunk and just fill it up with air. Super easy and cheap and it will raise that ass end up
