I would like to beef up the rear suspension in my 59 Galaxie and use it for pulling a vintage camper. However after having the car out of the garage, yes it fired right up in the below zero weather, I was impressed, I am finding the rear suspension just cannot handle the tongue weight of the trailer.
The car sits level all the way around, I just think the leaf springs really arent enough to do the job. Is it possible to add some air bags to the rear end to increase its payload capacity? If so, who makes a good set that would work for what I want to do? I dont want to add any more springs to the rear as it already rides like a lumber wagon on a washboard road. Any help is appreciated.
