As far as being lower what can I expect by installing front and back lowered coils for my 71?

confused on what exactly you are asking ...

3" max front, 6" max rear. Coils only.

and if you go 4" or more in the rear you should also get an adjustable panhard shock relocaters and shorter shocks and going 2-3 in front you'll need an alignment and shocks too

so you see theres really not so much of a coil spring only drop if you want to do it right

Thanks for the replys. That's what I was looking for. Sounds like I can replace just the coils to get lowered, plus some shock adjustments. This just may be a good way to go.
