Just goes to show different things work for different folks. We have an `87 GN in the shop right now with exactly the same Spohn lower arms, coil overs and 2" drop spindles and we have it sitting at near stock ride height. I`m glad you have the car where you want it now though.
BTW if you think the Varishock spanner with the 4 huge teeth is a knuckle buster you`ve never worked with the standard 1 little tooth coil over spanners! The Varishock wrenches are really awesome in comparison.
Don`t count on the tiny GW bumpstops,the coilovers will still overtravel and the tie rods will still hit the frame before the bumpstops contact the frame. They`re just for looks. Check your compression travel and replace them with taller ones that will prevent over compressing the coil overs and you`ll increase the life of the shocks and suspension parts. Mark SC&C
