My car is sitting way too high at the back. There's an 1.8" of air between the top of the tire and bottom of the wheel well lip.

There's 5 springs in each leaf with a mini leaf (about a foot long) that sticks under and in front of the shackles but doesn't protrude behind. So it looks like 6 leafs in the front of the axel and 5 behind. I have no idea what make they are but they are very firm.

Two questions:

1. Whats the stock right height or should the car sit level with the top of the tire, assuming a regular tire? I'm thinking it should hide about the top .5" of the tire.

2. Whats the best way to deal with these springs, re'arc them or buy new ones?
