[FC] ride height

[Andrew Sego]

Ken, 
   
  I have read in the Corvantics archives about a kit you offer to drop the front end.  IIRC it has shocks and springs.  Can you tell me and the rest of the new comers more about it?

This will lower the front of your truck by about 2" and then make it ride like a Cadillac. I have had reports that at least a front sway bar is recommended after doing this and Addco makes one.

gentlemen
I just got Rampy down off the jackstands to turn it around in my garage. I did 
notice that empty, it has the dreaded backward "lean". It looks like a boat 
coming up on plane. Any ideas on raising the back end a bit. I once used coil - 
"helper " springs over the shocks on an old Volare back in the 80's, and am 
thinking along those lines again.
