Any options besides air shocks for a 2"-3" lift?

I have had no problems with my air shocks or damage from them in the last 20 years of owning my (E-body) Cuda. However, I run them at low pressure.

Theres several places to purchase 1 or 2 inch over bend springs and IMO, that is the best way to go.

What air pressure do to have in them? I like mine @ 85-95psi for the right stance. Mine have been on for 9yrs & 6000miles. I recently had one come off the top rear mount! I lost the bushing, lug & washer. I checked my other shock and found the lugs only hand tight. Have yours ever come loose like that? I'm concerned that the stiffness caused the lugs to vibrate loose. Also, my pass. rear shock is 1" lower than the driver side ( measured them when inflated). I tried several times deflating & inflating but to no avail. I think when I repaired the driver side bushing I re-stretched the shock and I probably have to remove the pass. side shock and do the same thing. Both are holding air fine.

P.S. they are Gabriel Hi-Jackers
