Most aftermarket springs advertise a 1 inch drop, but I'd bet that they all sit different.

Anywho, my recommendation is to try to find some pics of cars that are running the suspension setup that you're interested in.

Relevant ride height specs for my car:
67 LeMans
SPC springs
Front: SPC upper/lower control arms, full stack of SPC spring shims, 0.5" taller lower ball joint, Bilstein HD shocks, Hellwig front sway bar
Rear: UMI boxed LCAs, UMI rotojoint UCAs, 69 Chevelle 12 bolt, Hellwig pro-touring sway bar
Wheels/tires: Trans Am Race Engineering Superlites, 17x8, 4.5" backspace, 0 offset. BF goodrich SportComp2s 245/45/17 25.7" diameter
Last pic wheels and tires have same specs but are Cragar Soft8s and Firestone Firehawk Indy500s.

I really like that stance! What is the ride height?
How do those wheels/tires fit the wheelhouses? Any rubbing or did you have to roll any sheetmetal? My Ford 9" is stock width at 60" drum-drum. Is your rear 60" wide?

Just started pulling the steering linkage apart. The center link and one tie rod end is wasted.

While I'm in there, I'd like to swap the steering box for a quick turn box. What are my options for a bolt-in quick turn box?
