I HAVE DONE SEVERAL OF THESE CARS
GO TO ADVANCE/AUTOZONE ORDER FRONT COIL SPRINGS FOR A 1982 CUTLASS CRUISER EQUIPPED WITH A DIESEL THEY ARE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO INSTALL!! ON THE REAR ORDER A COIL OVER AIR SHOCK AROUND $120. AT PARTS STORE YOU WILL HAVE TO ELIMINATE THE FRT INNER FENDERS FOR CLEARANCE
ALSO MINOR TRIMMING ON FRT FENDERS
YOU WILL LOOSE A LITTLE TURNING RADIUS GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BOX

What you will need to do is raise the suspension with new coil springs on the front and rear of the vehicle. Keep in mind that when you raise the vehicle, the ride will be very stiff. You will be compromising the ride AND handling of the car for the new rims. Contact me with all of the vehicle specifics (engine size, A/C?, 2 door 4 door or station wagon, etc.) and I might be able to recommend a part number for new front and rear springs. You will also need new front and rear shocks at the same time, so you will need to contact a shock manufacturer and ask for longer shocks.

What you'll favor to do is boost the suspension with new coil springs at the front and rear of the automobile. understand that once you boost the automobile, the journey will be very stiff. you'd be compromising the journey AND dealing with of the automobile for the recent rims. contact me with all the automobile specifics (engine length, A/C?, 2 door 4 door or station wagon, and so on.) and that i'd be in a position to propose an element volume for brand new the front and rear springs. also favor new the front and rear shocks at the same time, so that you'll favor to the contact a wonder producer and ask for longer shocks.

Why don't you go to a store like AutoZone (or similar) and tell them what you're trying to do. They probably have lift kits available and can give you advice so you won't buy something that won't work.
