Taking a 66 chevele, switching to 2nd f body (2 " drop spindles) yielding a 2 3/4" drop and eibach springs (1.3" drop). Thats a little over a 4" drop. Hot rods to hell truck arm kit takes care of the back.
But the question is, what problems will i run into with that much drop outside the fact that long tube headers are not an option?

thanks - JOHN

Front wheel clearance will be the first thing to be a problem. You can go very low if you remove or modify the inner fenders, though.

I wondered about that, only going with a 17x7 in front. Its not so much the inner fenderwell but the body fender when I turn that i'm worried about rubbing. I just need to nail the back spacing i guess?
