Default 1968 gto car height

I have A 1968 gto conv. Can some one tell me where to measure it. And how height the car should set. front and back. The car is stock. I think the front is to hight. It is highter then the back do they set the same. I would like the back to be highter than the front. I am think about cutting the front springs as they are new. thanks Dex

Don't cut your springs as that will increase the spring rate and make it ride rougher! The cars sat a tad bit lower in the back from the factory - close to even but slightly lower in rear is my experience. There are many springs you can order for the car. Did you order the correct ones? Also, to not heat the springs either as that will untemper the springs and they will sag...
