Great, that gives me a start so I can figure out how much of a dropped spring I need.

BTW, the reason I asked for fender to spindle center is that is eliminates the wheel/tire from the equation. You can have a small tire/wheel or some monster ones, the fender/spindle measurement doesn't change until you change something in the suspension. I wish more people/companies would use this (very common in the import world) as it gives you a real world drop amount.

Thanks again!!!
