Ok I pretty much got the one side done. I just need to know from all of you guys that have done coilovers where do I initially set the screw for the ride height. I have it in the middle right now.

i set mine at 18-22 threads from the bottom......it's your ride height with the rear you wanna be close with..but i have mine shimmed different then you so it gonna be trial and error....plus drive it a bit and let it settle....you know the rule....once you jack it up and let it down the car must roll in order to sit correctly......

what k frame is that? i havnt seen one that had a spring perch or (whatever its called) on the a-arm before....hmmm


but mine is set at about 15 threads up and i got about 1" clearance over front tire...but i can raise and lower my rear to match so i went LOW:D

Its PA racing. I was going to stay with the regular springs, but it didnt work out so I pretty much ordered a coilover kit last week and here I am.
