For my second gen (1976) I used the Hotchkis Sport Suspension Lowering Leaf Springs Package - 2409C designed to lower 1.5 in. With the OEM rear leaf shackles my wheel center to fender was 14.5 inches. On dips etc. my exhaust was hitting the road a lot. In the pictures my spacing is now 15.25 inches. I raised the car 0.75 inches by fabbing up longer shackles (the difference in the shackles isn’t even obvious and still tucked under. Not like those foot long shackles of the 70-80s LOL.) Running 285 40 18.
