Gotta get the stance right.

Ok so i have installed a 4/6 belltech but had to pull a leaf in the back. The front now needs to come down a bit to look right. I am thinking of buying a 2" drop coil for the front versus the 1" that is in there now and that should get it right. i am curious though...How much is the spring that is in there now going to settle and how long does this ussually take to happen? Thanks
Justin

Re: Gotta get the stance right.

It would take a good bit before it sags even the slightest. I would just get the 2 inch springs. Remember the rear may start to sag more too since you removed a leaf.
