Frontend ride height, limitations

Thanks for all the input guys. I’m learning new things and trying to figure other things out. That’s what life‘s all about.

Just out of curiosity, I’m not sure if you saw this video by Chris. I saw it about a year ago and thought that’s a good idea. I think he sells these plates. I don’t think I’ll do this, but if you’re looking for ultimate performance, this might be a good thing to understand.

Those plates only work with drum steering knuckles, not the 73-76 A, the 73-89 B-F-M-J-R or any reproduced disc brake knuckle.
I saw that video when it was new. It motivated me to buy the stuff to align my own cars.
Have you read this thread ?

Alignment at home and aftermarket UCAS too.

No but I will!

Something that may help - springs are defined by the equation F = k * x, where F is the force applied, k is the spring constant (function of dia., material, etc.) and x is the displacement. So, it requires 100 lb of force to displace a spring with a k = 10 lb/in by 10 in. This applies for linear springs. Progressive springs do have a variable k.

When you turn the adjuster on the TC you are changing the force exerted on the car by displacing the spring. The k stays the same.
