My 1986 Vette was lowered by a previous owner. I want to raise it for a variety of reasons. What length are the bolts on the rear spring? The ones for lowering are about 10".
What may be required to raise the front?

Rear stock bolts are 9 Inches. You don't have to replace the 10 that are in there just tighten up on the nut to raise rear of vehicle until you have the height that you want. You only lengthen the bolt to lower. The front is much harder. Especially to reverse. You will have to remove the lowering blocks( which replaced the stock ones) on top of the spring with stock ones. You have to remove front spring to do this. Hope this helps.
