Lowering the rear a bit/fixing rake

[Andy348]

I'm running on 60/40 Apex springs and I hate the rake look. I've thrown two gravel bags in the trunk to help with traction in the snow, which has made my car look 100x better.

So I'm wondering if there's a way to lower the back end a bit without buying new springs? I originally thought drop hats but those are only for the front, so I'm kind of lost.

Remove spring pads, just did mine yesterday.

Removing the rear pads MIGHT get you what you want but it might not be enough to fix your problem

removing the pads wont drop it as low as you want. Think about it, removing the pads gives u about a 1/4-3/8 drop. The downfall to that is the spring will be sitting right on the arch. Which means metal to metal contact. More noise, and more RUST alot faster. Thats not fun, just go with a lower spring in the rear. Or if your really poor, cut em ha. ENJOY.
