Try some urethane bumpstops in back. I got a set for the rear that are about
1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. They do require drilling a hole up into the frame
though, as the factory monster rubber stops clamp around the frame. These
urethane bumpers give you a good 1 1/2 to 2 more inches of travel (a guess).
 Comes in very handy if you lower the rear AND have to haul or tow; in fact
I'm going to pick up a GTO 389 rebuild tomorrow!
