Shims for rear shocks....

anyone have any tips or ideas on making a 1/2 to 3/4 in spacer for rear shock do you think it will weaken bolts and affect my rear suspension really having a saggy rear and do not like my stance I want raked stance so 1/2 plate would be better. Any ideas would help.

I thought that would be a problem I am looking for rear H-techs Teins they say 1" drop est that is what I am looking for then it will give me the raked stance. Hard just to find the rear spings.

thanks

Just get either H or S Tech Teins they both have a raked stance when using the full set that is. Its gonna be hard to find just the rear set unless you can find someone who just happened to have taken theirs off and are running a different set of rears. Not a good idea to mix and match springs IMO.
