I'm getting ready to install a tubular K-member, A-Arms, and front coilovers along with 4 bolt caster camber plates.

My question is do I just adjust the coilovers to a stock height since the rear is still stock? Or should I lower it in the front just a little? Would it be best to take a measurement before disassembling the k-member and try to match that?

Thanks.

Yes, take measurements. Also, to get proper ride height, measure at the pinch weld seem on the lower rocker, not the center of the fender (this is a much more accurate place to measure true ride height). If you just wanna do drag racing, keep the front stock height if the rear is stock.

I was going to measure from bottom of the car right behind the front tire to the ground.
