if a suspension shop 'doesn't believe' that you 1000 is reverse leaf spring then my advice is go somewhere else.
don't give idiots like that your time of day.

that guy must be a pretty big tosser,
i rekon the only way will to be get the leaves reset. youl have to take the front end apart and pull the leaf out of the x member the put a bit more bend into the leaf, or get some one who knows what their doing to do it for you. do you have any pics of your car cos i'm wondering how low you can go before stuff bottoms out mullet

getting it lifted is pretty much the same as having any work done on leaf springs, best way is to have it reset by a suspension shop, also check that the rubber pads the spring sits against haven't been cut down. this could be how it was lowered before. With a decent set of shocks, new bolts and some extra shims in the upper control arm to give better camber they can handle fantastic

Good to see you back on again boofhead.
When are you going to give that 1200 of yours a run up this way?
