putting a small suspension lift on back of volvo s40
Hi
after reading an article on here on corvette aerodyamics and having the rear of my volvo lower than the front. Would it help aerodyamics to raise the rear about an inch. S40's are also known for soft rear springs if i put any weight in boot the front end starts to feel floaty and vague. Think its to do with factory fitted engine under tray as the air hitting it is lifting the front end. No weight in back and s40 feels glued to the road. Other option is to fit a small air dam as s40 is very close to the ground 12" or less not sure about airdam effectiveness. A 3rd option could be replace rear shocks and springs from a v40 estate of same age and see if this helps. Shocks and springs will come off as a unit provide nuts are not rust welded on should not be a difficult or long job. Views or opinions are most welcome.
thanks
