Alignment on Lowered Front....

My front end is lowered in the front by three inches w/ springs only. Is it possible to bring the wheel back into alignment (or at least close) by installing longer bolts for the upper control arm, and shimming out the mounting position? If so how much longer?

Thanks

(would have done a search, but it seems to down temporarily)

Yes, longer studs are possible but actually may not be needed. Take it to 'Mike' @ Triple 'A' muffler on Broadway (near I-30). He's a car guy & did a great job on my 74.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
