Redfox340 Posted July 16, 2003 Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 Does the FE-3 suspension have rear spring seats or insulators? Confused on what you're looking for. First the Gen I W-Bodies don't have individual springs in the rear; only a transverse mono-leaf. The shocks have rubber mounting boots for the shock towers... but all I can think off. Maybe, perhaps you need to be more specific on what you need help with. - Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blugp96 Posted July 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 You are right, I forgot that there aren't two springs in the rear. I think I am looking for a rear leaf spacer. It just raises the back of the car a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blugp96 Posted July 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 hahahaha, hilarious. I would like to raise it because it sags pretty bad. I am replacing the struts and mounts, but if that doesn't do it, I figured a spacer would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91cutty Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 I had to add the spacers because my unispring had almost worn through at the ends! It stopped wear on the spring from it scraping against the metal mounts. If it is the spring that's sagging and you do need the spacers expect to replace them a few times because they have a tendency to fall out for some reason. (My buddy's had his fall out 4 times already!.. although i haven't had problems with mine at all.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blugp96 Posted July 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 I have had them fall out twice, and once they were even bolted in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
