3 sets of front springs, 2 sets of shocks and 1 set of QA1 R series coilovers later, I have the ride height that makes me happy.

The rear has Wolfe adjustable perches and uses 2.5 QA1 coilover springs.

Very nice build and killer stance...

Very nice set-up...

Couple questions:
Are you running stock spindles ?

Do you know what your height is in the front ? Ground to center of wheel well.

I'm going to be doing the same set-up. I have QA1 Pro Coils, I'll be using Afco double adjustables. I have SPC uppers and lowers.

Very nice build. Clean and well detailed....

Stock spindles modified for the aerospace brakes. I'll measure it out tonite.

Thanks, I appreciate it...

Adjusting ride height is not an easy task either. I bought the QA1 wrenches and they don't have much leverage.

Thanks, that helps...

I currently have an 24-1/2" ride height with 2" drop spindles. I'm thinking I'll put the stock spindles back on with the QA1 Pro Coils(350#), I would like to get the ride height somewhere around 25".

 

[sackracing]

I'm gonna crank it up to 26 inches. I've tore up way too many sets of innercooler pipes over that last 15 years.
