<VV> suspension lift

[corvair at mts.net]

When you converted to the '64 suspension, did you use the '64 springs? They are softer than the older ones because the transverse link is supposed to take the load...

So if RJ wants to raise his '64 he could try some '63 springs... might give him that jacked-up teenager car look though....

When I converted my Monza wagon to '64 rear suspension, it sat too high
in the rear.  I used longer bolts on the ends of the transverse leaf
spring to lower the rear end.  In your case, either have a spring shop
re-arch the spring, or add shims between the nut and the rubber spring
bushing.
