Re: before and after pics
The back does look lower than 5 compared to the 4 mine is dropped. Looks more like 2 inches lower than mine.

Re: before and after pics
The bump stops are hitting the axle, I had to cut an inch off them to get them off the axle.

Re: before and after pics
Looks pretty good. I do beleive they may have sent you the wrong rear springs. My 5" rear drop doesn't sit that low and I have lots of room between the axle and stock bumpstops.

Re: before and after pics
I just put the 3/5 from cpp in my 67 (its a short wheel base) and I think my front is a bit higher than my rear, but just barely if it is. I have a big block up front though, so that might be squatting the springs a bit more than your sb. I am not on my rear bump stops though. I don't think cpp has a 6" drop spring available do they? Maybe that is what you got though.
