I thought about air aswell, but I couldn’t find anywhere to put the tank as I 
still had to fit a drum kit in !!
 
I looked at this lot;

I have always been unhappy with the rear of my saloon, get the pose right and 
you can't have anyone on the rear seats, and visa versa. 
So I have recently been looking at air bag options. 
My idea is to have the bags down when standing and pump up as required for 
extra support or clearance on the go.

Paul, Chris, Jim - thanks for info

I will probably get a chance to look at the rear suspension coming week. Will 
get springs off and measure.
Anyone know what the free lengths and ratings are of these standard Ford 
sprngs? I see Burton have some alternative spings but do not list rating of 
standard springs.

What rear springs do folks recommend?

My rear ride height seems too high - much bigger gap between the arch and tyre 
at rear than the front. I have noticed same on pictures of other saloons. 
Wondering if this is a design feature or wrong length springs have been fitted 
at some point.

The build manual recommends soft 1100 springs. Mine was built using a mk2 XR2 
donor (shorter stiffer springs?) but these may well have been changed since 
original build.

The car handles ok but to me the stance does not "look right" as is.
