Finally got to doing it...reverse eye leaf suspension....took a day of work and did it.....rear end sits good 3"lower and squats down when you boot it....not bad knowing it cost me $0 just a lot of fu$in around..I will upload pictures if someone could tell me how to post them on threads..........
PS It is looking mean with them 15"s on the back......

How did you do it. Im about to do the suspension on my 1200, a write up and pics would be great. cheers

Are you talking about flipping the rear leafs upside down? Been there-terrible ride. The "free" way to lower the rear & still get a stock ride is to relocate the axle above the leafs. In front, find F10 struts(fatter & tighter coils) and cut out 2 or 3 coils and/or heat the coils till they drop to desired height. Beware, if you go too low up front, you won't be able to turn! I found some 12" rims for the front and 13" in the rear. I've been trying to scan photos but don't know how. Anyway, this is what I did back in'88. I'm now trying to find another sedan.

U can finally check the pics of my car after lowering ...

Did you flip the whole set of leafs over

or just one?? or two

please explain??

and wot have you done to the front suspention??

Back:
only reversed the bottom 3 leafs and leaving the main(longest)as it is..............
Front:
It had 4 coils cut out ... another example what happens when beer and angle grinder come together..........it is getting replaced by stanza struts...........

That looks pretty mean. You need to flare the front guards a bit, and get some nice wide wheels under the front too. A bit of a polish-job for the paint. Then you are ready for some cruisin..

I like it, it looks cool,so you reversed the eyes on the leaf springs, I got mine decambered 2 inches low, I was told I can add the extra inch(lower it 1 more inch) by reversing the eyes,but first I will finish my front, do not want to end with the front taller than the rear. You mention 4 coils, what about your shocks, are those hitting bottom now? ( I read you are getting Stanza's front suspension) . I will have to flare the front and rear, because I use 13X8 wheels w 215/50/13's, but the end result will be monstruos. I plan 235/50/13 for the rear.

HAving different diamter wheels on your car is defectable, so look out for the cops.

How is your clearance on the back?
