Eclipse drift kit is too low to the ground.
I bought a 93 Eclipse that has a Drift body kit on it, which makes it too low to the ground. Is there any way to raise the car up so the drift bumper doesn't tear off going over speed bumps or dips?

Re: Eclipse drift kit is too low to the ground.
Is the car lowered? It probably is. If so you could get some factory springs to put on it. But if it is factory height and it is still too low...lol. I've used these things that you buy from auto parts stores....they are clamps that go on your coil springs. I have used them to lower cars back in my day. But you can also flip them around to expand the coil spring and raise it. You might be able to do that to yours. They also make spacers thingys you can put in your coils to raise it.

Re: Eclipse drift kit is too low to the ground.
Would recommend an air ride system with the struts in the air bags. They have some great kits out there now that are even used on drag cars... but it's not going to make the best drift car then.

Re: Eclipse drift kit is too low to the ground.
Drive up a curb at 30mph, that will solve all your problems. 1g bodykits FTL.
