Who sells one? Need to lift the rear of my '67. Any other suggestions are welcome. Pulled out the air shocks based on the ride quality. This is a cruiser not a racer. Thanks.

Get the springs re-arched or buy new ones. Coil over shocks will eventually destroy the upper shock mount. It's not designed to carry a load.
If a man speaks while in his garage and his wife does not hear it, is he still wrong?

Late to chime in but I wouldn’t let that area support the weight of the car. Way to flimsy
