I need to lower my oval race car now as I plain to hill climb it, and it sites a bite to high. I’m thinking 2" at the rear and 3” or 4" at the front. I was planing to use Dropped Spindles up front with adjusters, so I would not run out of wheel travel and still have plenty of adjustment. At the rear I was thinking of running Adjustable Spring Plate, save all the hassle when adjusting the back end. What do you think? What are people doing?
