Cut front springs or lower front body mounts??
My project Attempt/Mistake #2 is sitting higher in the front then in the back and I hate that look. Already have a 6 inch drop in the back from Classic Industries and have 3 inch drop spindles in the front and one inch big block drop springs. At least that is what I was told when I bought everything but now the front is too high. As posted in my build thread I dropped the engine down and moved it back and so I am having interference with my steering linkage and radiator shroud also. Shall I Z the frame in front of the motor and thereby drop the front body mounts, fixing my higher front end and my shroud problem, or just cut the springs down a bit and figure out some other solution for my other problems. I know that if I drop the front body mounts that I will have to alter all my others but I have already done that once before. Would I have any unforseen problems by essentially having the body sit on the frame slightly lower in the front then in the back?
