well here's what is happening. i put 2 inch drop spindles on the front along with the clip. it put the front down just right. i went and order some red powder coated steel rims and probably could have had the offset measured better to have the rims suck into the fenders a little more. when i turn hard left or right i hit the edge of the fender. so out comes some cash to the body guy who cuts the fenders and tries to reshape the whole deal to allow the wheels to turn . oh yeah i forgot to add the tires are tall 4" white walled radials. after all his work they still rub when cranked all way. so a bit frustrated there. then i lowered the back by taking out 4 leafs and throwing on 5 inch drop blocks. the stance looks great but currently there is only about 4 inches from frame to axle. thats without a tail gate,gas tank,bumper, and wood. the shop recommeded going with an air shock to raise it up a little. is that good? and is 4 leafs ok if i'm not hauling anything? it looks like i need to figure out a cheap way to raise the front about 1/2 to 1 inch. someone recommended some sort of doughnut shaped spacer to put under the spring or go with a 350 spring in the front. Any suggestions on that?do those cheap little J.C whitney nut things work? the drawing in the catalog sure shows a miracle! does my rear set up sound dangerous with a 327 with a few extra horses. when i get the cash i'll spring for the mono leafs but this is the best i can do for now. i appreciate the suggestions from above and will check out the deal with the front springs. I also need to add that i'm currently about 1/4 inch below the scrub line in back. A suggestion to anyone trying to lower a truck into the weeds. If you got the money go with the ifs.Its true the camaro clip is a bit to wide and the shortend A arms you'll need are 600 bucks.if you want a fender that appears to swallow up the thick white wall you cant pull it with the camaro clip. go withthe clip if you have a very complete shop and can do it yourself and dont want to drop oit much. Its just better to wait a few more months saving cash and get the ifs. by the time i get this thing right i'll be at almost the same price as do the ifs.
