Installed CPP 3" front springs.....

Well, when I ordered these I was told by the CPP rep that the big block springs and the small block springs were rated the same. I questioned him and he assured me they were the same. Well I installed them last night and it measures 25.5" from the ground to the top of the fender well!! Looks awesome, but now I'm gonna have to order 6" springs for the rear just to make it sit close to level. Right now 5" coils and 2" blocks are in the rear and it is still 1.5" higher than the front. So to get the look I'm after I will have to swap the 5" coils for some 6" coils. Just a little warning, whatever the CPP rep tells you, it is not the same drop whether it's BB or SB! It looks awesome though, and yes I know I need to post some pictures, I'll get them up as soon as I can!
