I was under the impression that the ATS spindle on a G-body would only allow 3.5" BS'ing (that's the info I got when I inquired about them). They said any more BS'ing & the steering arm would interfere w/the wheel lip on the inside.

Hhmmm . . .....

I put some serious thought into this too, and also decided not to do it. My main reason was that I would have to fab up new front inner fenders or run without them to have any gain. The front-tire to inner-fender clearance is the limiting factor for getting the maximum drop from the car, so in reality, with stock inners, and running as low as you can go, rather than dropping the body 1/2" you would just effectively be raising the chassis 1/2". This would be nice for gaining a little ground-clearance, but you would be moving weight higher, rather than lower... of course, custom inner fenders would solve that problem, and allow you to take advantage of the body-drop.

The wheels I have on it right now (corvette wheels) do hit the tie rod. I will have you an answer tonight about the new ones. It will be close, but I think we are ok. :eek:

Please post your findings when you get the chance.

Unless I am really missing something, I will have plenty of clearance with the 4 3/4 b.s. I put the TTlls back on that are 4" bs and there is plenty of room, plenty. There will be absolutely no issue with the steering arms and clearance.
The other 3/4 will not be a factor. :thumbsup:

Just how low do you want to go,guys? My El Camino is definitely lower than both your cars and if I had my 17x9 fronts re-backspaced from 5" to 5.5",I could probably take the car down another 1/2" to 1",with ease.
And,my car still has the inner fenders.
