If you're on stock springs, that's the problem. The OEM springs sag after a few thousand miles. The only remedy is new springs.

Save 250 bucks and some pedders zero drop or 5/16 raise and your problem will be solved.

You could also add a set of drag bags. It will lift that *** up and give you a little something extra at the track. I have some on my other car and they got that *** up nice and perky!

Drag bags can be found here:

However, I agree with Kamauxx, get a pair of Pedders zero drop springs and do it right.

Don't be a redneck and do drag bags. Get some Pedders 0" drop springs or 5/16" raise drag springs.

Why are drag bags redneck? They solve two issues: sagging springs and wheel hop. Many cars and trucks come with air ride suspension from the factory. Am I missing something? That's all drag bags really are!

If you go the new spring route, it sounds like you will need the drag bags anyways.

Did I mention that I am a redneck! :-)

i sir am a red neck. drag bags have cut wheel hop by at least 70% for me. with 10 psi only and now i show my rear end all the time.

Mine was saggy, then I put on King 0 drop springs and BMR drag bags. Here is the result:

Springs>Drag Bags. Plus springs are easier to install

Oh and drag bags are not the same as factory air ride suspension.

The only difference is that the factory air ride suspension has compressor and sensor to adjust the ride height. They even mount them in the middle of the coil spring as well!

I just replaced the system in my Ford (bad word I know) and it is identical to my firends drag bags that we installed last week. Now I am not saying that they serve the same purpose as drag bags, but they are the same thing from what I can tell.

If i put zero drops on my gto i have a 6spd and like u all know they like to axel hop. will those springs make it worse? I am looking for a problem fix cause i have 19" rims and when i get on it the fenders cut my side walls cause it suck down so bad.

Drag bags are a better option as 1. you don't have to ride around looking like your car is going to off road all the time 2. they better control wheel hop. I put in drag bags and keep them deflated except for when I track it. Get AirLift bags for the Mazda MPV and you can install them without cutting the bump stops off like they instruct with the "correct" bags. Cheaper too. I got Lovells 20mm drop springs which not only make the car look better but also DD ride well and improve handling by lowering the center of gravity.

Drag bags serve 1 purpose- to control wheel hop which these cars do bad. Even if you get new springs, I'd still do the drag bags if you plan to visit the track.

I guess I'm a redneck too, lol.

OP started this thread 3.5 years ago. Bet he's fixed it by now.

Pedders 0-drops and Airl Lift drag bags here. Perfect combo.

Joeyelbows

Pedders xa coilovers. You have more adjustability then the drag bags and it eliminated wheel hop for me.

Lovells 0 Drop loved them till I got Kings HHDs :-D but I am autoX that is why I wanted stiffer springs. If you want drag bags I have pair that I could sell.
