Hello Chingaman,
Sorry to hear Your Clipper Has A Sag Issues.
We Own A 1977 Dodge 440 Rear Kitchen,
I Have A Question Do You Have Air Bags On Rear Axels?

I Had Progressive Helwigs on My Old Ford 4x4
They Worked Real Well, My Springs Were In Good Shape.

If You Springs Are Bad, You Can Have Them Re -Arced @ A Spring Shop, It Is A little Costly.

I Added a New Set Of Firestone Air Bags @ It Did A Great Job On Raise Rear Of Clipper
I Tow A Boat & Trailer I Add About 60psi It Real Helps The Drivable Of Clipper.

Was Worth The Money Good Investment >>> I Think I Have A Post On Web Site, Will Check, If Not will Re-Post Part # of Air Bags.

Hope that Helps,
Joe

Hello Chingaman2001,
How Much Air Are You Running in Air Bags?
They Should Be Able To Lift  & Maintain 1-1/2" To 2" If They Are Working Properly.
I Had To Install Them On My 1977 Dodge Clipper Because They Didn't Come On Clippers Till 1978.
I Tow a Boat & Trailer With No Problems, I has Really Help The Ride.
