99 Expy Ride Height

[Coey326]

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the ride height of my 99 Expy. It does not have air ride, just springs and shocks. I changed the shocks a couple weeks ago. I measured from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the wheel well. There is about a 3 inch difference. The back sits down lower and I would like to level it out. It came with a factory lift of 3 inches.

Thank you

So the front has been lifted but not the rear? I think you can buy a spring spacer for the rear on a first gen to raise the back up. Otherwise you could lower the front to match the rear using the torsion bars.

I agree with spring spacers

Thank you for your feedback. So this is what I did to fix the height. When I measured it out the front set 2 3/4 inches lower than the front. I bought a set of 3 inch coil spacers. With that it leveled out my Expedition where the front a back sit 8 3/8 inches from the tire.

I bought the coil spacers off eBay from supreme.suspensions at the link here.

I hope this helps someone in the future.
