Wow Ed, that car still looks great to me. I miss it. But understand progress and its working well for you.
My car now sits just like that. I thought I should get the tail end down. My car sits pretty square now left to right side. Off about 1/4 to 3/8 side to side. I swapped rear springs as car was 5/8 taller on pass side w no driver. It appears to have helped big time so I think I may need rear springs.
I stil have to cut an extra 1/2 coil off pass side to keep front suare but a measurable difference in measurement of lower control arm to frame measured at lower bump stop.
I had to put aftermarket front control arms on as I bent 3 sets of Morosos. Always come out curved
The new arms appear to keep spring straight in front frame pocket now. I've been trying to dial in car before I race again, hopefully this year.
Thanks for looking Ed.
Chris.
